《With My Awakened Gathering Skill Talent, I Am Invincible》 Chapter 1 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio [ Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully binding the system! ] What was that sound? What system? What the hell was that?! He Qi slowly opened his eyes and sat up. He looked at his surroundings and realized that he was in the hospital. His right hand was on an IV drip while his left hand was wrapped in thick gauze. Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain and a large amount of information flooded into his mind. In fact, he was not from this world, but Satrolla. One day in 2030, there was a sudden rainstorm. In the rain, there was a large amount of virus. The people, animals, and plants that were drenched in the rain all mutated. Overnight, they suddenly had a magical power, and they became mindless, as if they were controlled by someone. He Qi had died under the attacks of many monsters when he went out to search for food in the eighth year of the mutation. ¡°Fortunately, I¡¯m still alive.¡± He Qi looked at his body and heaved a sigh of relief. He said in his heart with some joy. Through his memory just now, he found out that this was a young man with the same name as him. The situation in this world was roughly the same as in his original world. In the year 2044 of Vemetis Planet, a huge black hole suddenly appeared in the sky, and many ultra beasts descended from the black hole. Humans used pistols, grenades, nuclear weapons, and other weapons with large destructive power to attack these ultra beasts. However, all of them were useless, so humans discovered a mysterious substance in the air. This substance could make these strategic weapons ineffective. For a time, no humans thought of a way to kill the ultra beasts. These ultra beasts became stronger day by day. They killed more and more humans, and many cities had been massacred. Fortunately, with the passage of time, some humans had discovered that they could absorb the mysterious substance in the air. From there, they could change their physique and possess mysterious powers. This discovery immediately made humans ecstatic. After the scientists continued to study it, they finally understood this mysterious substance. They called this mysterious substance ¡°pneuma¡±. By absorbing pneuma, humans could break the shackles of their physical bodies and possess mysterious powers. They called the mysterious power ¡°ability¡±, and those who possessed ability were called ability user. However, not everyone could absorb pneuma. In order to become ability user, one had to test one¡¯s aptitude. The higher one¡¯s aptitude was, the higher one¡¯s potential and the power one could control in the future would be! And people without abilities would be ordinary people for the rest of their lives. ¡°Not bad.¡± He Qi said. In his original world, humans didn¡¯t have abilities. Comparing the two, this world was much luckier. ¡°This body doesn¡¯t seem to have any abilities.¡± He Qi flipped his palm, his expression turned grave. In this era where ultra beasts were rampant, humans could only rely on their abilities to survive. Even if their aptitude was the lowest, they could still become an ability user. However, without abilities, they didn¡¯t even have a chance of surviving in this era! The original owner had undergone the aptitude test yesterday. When he found out that he didn¡¯t have any abilities, he suffered a huge blow. He returned home muddleheaded and eventually did something foolish, he ended his own life. His parents found out in time and sent him to the hospital. However, He Qi of this world still died on the way to the hospital. That was how he managed to occupy his body. At this moment, the sound of the door opening came from the door. He Qi turned his head and the memories of these two people suddenly appeared in his mind. The seemingly kind woman in front of him was the original owner¡¯s mother, Xiang Wanying. She was holding an insulated box in her hand. The man next to her, who looked very serious, was the original owner¡¯s father, He Yi. He held the woman¡¯s hand and walked towards him. At this moment, they came to the stool in front of He Qi¡¯s bed and sat down. The man set up the table on the bed. Seeing this, the woman immediately placed the insulated box on the table. She opened the insulated box, scooped out the soup inside, and placed it in front of He Qi. ¡°Drink some soup.¡± The woman looked at He Qi who was stunned at the side and said softly. She did not mention anything about him committing suicide. She was afraid that if she mentioned it again, it would remind He Qi of the fact that he did not have the talent. He Qi was stunned when he saw this scene. This was the first time he felt the care of his family. In his original world, he was an orphan. No one had ever cared about him. No one would cook soup for him when he was injured. Now, he felt this kind of care and felt very warm in his heart. He lowered his head and drank the soup. He said in his heart, ¡°From now on, I will be He Qi! I will live well on your behalf!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I won¡¯t do anything stupid anymore.¡± After he finished the soup, he raised his head and said solemnly to the two of them. When Xiang Wanying heard his words, her eyes instantly reddened. She sobbed and said, ¡°Okay, okay, have a good rest after drinking the soup. The doctor said that you can be discharged from the hospital tomorrow.¡± He Qi drank the soup and nodded. When he finished the soup, Xiang Wanying and He Yi took the insulated box and walked out of the ward. Seeing them leave, He Qi yawned and laid down. The next morning, Xiang Wanying brought He Qi out of the ward and came to the lobby of the hospital. At a corner of the lobby, He Yi had already finished the discharge procedures for him. The three of them walked out of the hospital and headed home. When they returned home, He Qi immediately saw the corpse of the ultra beast lying in front of his door. At this moment, a voice rang out in his mind. [ Low-tier level-one ultra beast, Blazing Bird! ] [ Available for collection! ] [ Do you wish to collect it? ] Golden Finger? Or is this my hidden ability? Hearing this voice, He Qi didn¡¯t panic. Instead, he calmly analyzed the situation. After experiencing the reincarnation, He Qi had long become calm when encountering major events. Chapter 2 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio He immediately shifted his gaze to Xiang Wanying, but the voice in his mind didn¡¯t ring out again. ¡°Can I only collect the corpses of ultra beasts?¡± He Qi¡¯s expression froze as he muttered softly. He knew too little information at the moment, so he couldn¡¯t get an accurate result yet. He Qi planned to try again. He looked at the blazing bird and said in his heart, ¡°Collect!¡± At this moment, the corpse that was lying on the ground started to emit a fiery red light. After the light dissipated, a red bead floated in the air and suddenly flew towards He Qi. ¡°Be careful!¡± Xiang Wanying and He Yi in front of him looked at the bead vigilantly. When the bead stopped in front of He Qi, the system¡¯s voice sounded in his mind again. [ Successful harvest! ] [ Low-level-one fire attribute ability obtained! ] [ Do you wish to awaken it? ] Fire attribute ability! He Qi was delighted. Ever since humans learned that absorbing pneuma could change their bodies, after a long period of exploration and development, they had long established a perfect system! Humans who could awaken their abilities would have attributes. The most basic abilities were divided into gold, wood, water, fire, earth, thunder, space, wind, light, and so on. Abilities were divided into 1-60 levels, and each level was divided into low, medium, and high tier. The higher the level of an ability, the stronger the damage. The fire attribute ability that He Qi had collected would make him an ability user if it was awakened. ¡°Awaken!¡± Without any hesitation, He Qi chose to awaken it. As soon as he said that, the fiery red bead exploded instantly. The scarlet flame surrounded He Qi and then surged into his body. The flame quickly swam around He Qi¡¯s body, burning all the bones in his body. The pain instantly surged up. He Qi gritted his teeth and endured, his forehead slightly sweating. Seeing this, Xiang Wanying wanted to go forward, but was stopped by He Yi. ¡°He¡¯s awakening his power. We can¡¯t go up and disturb him at this time.¡± He Yi said. Hearing He Yi¡¯s words, Xiang Wanying finally remembered. When humans awakened their abilities and became ability user, they couldn¡¯t be disturbed by others. If they were disturbed during the process of awakening, they would fail to awaken their abilities and suffer a backlash. Those who suffered a backlash would never be able to awaken their abilities of the same attribute again, unless they were treated with medicinal pills. She immediately stopped in front of He Qi and looked at him worriedly. A minute later, He Qi stretched out his hand. With a thought, a ball of flame instantly appeared on his hand. ¡°Success!¡± He looked at the flame on his hand and revealed a smile. Seeing this, Xiang Wanying hurriedly walked forward and said in surprise, ¡°Congratulations on your awakening. Let¡¯s make a big feast to celebrate tonight!¡± He Qi smiled and nodded. When they reached the door, He Yi grabbed the blazing bird on the ground without waiting any from Xiang Wanying. When the three of them returned home, He Yi took the blazing bird to the kitchen. He started to cook dinner for the day. After more than ten minutes, He Yi brought out the last dish and placed it on the table. He shouted to the living room, ¡°It¡¯s time to eat!¡± ¡°Coming!¡± Xiang Wanying replied when she heard the voice. After she finished speaking, she brought He Qi to the dining table and sat down. ¡°Let¡¯s eat.¡± As Xiang Wanying spoke, she picked up a piece of blazing bird meat for He Qi and placed it into his bowl. He Qi looked at the meat with an alluring luster and picked it up to take a bite. After he swallowed the meat, he suddenly felt a wave of heat in his body. ¡°Do you feel hot all over?¡± Xiang Wanying asked. Hearing that, He Qi nodded his head. ¡°That¡¯s right. Eating the meat of ultra beasts can improve an ability user¡¯s power a little.¡± Xiang Wanying immediately smiled and carefully explained to He Qi. Hearing Xiang Wanying¡¯s explanation, He Qi was shocked. He didn¡¯t expect the meat of ultra beasts to have such an effect! He immediately picked up a few pieces of meat and ate them. ¡°You can¡¯t rush the matter of upgrading your ability. It took your father a year to upgrade from a level-one low-tier to a level-three low-tier.¡± Xiang Wanying couldn¡¯t help but laugh when she saw him like this. He Qi was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at He Yi. He didn¡¯t expect that upgrading his ability would be so difficult. It took him a year to reach level three! He couldn¡¯t possibly reach level-three in a year like his father, right?! No! He had to improve his strength as soon as possible! During the school test yesterday, the whole class saw that he didn¡¯t have any talent. Everyone immediately sneered at him. Some people who had become ability users even used their abilities to hurt him. Although that person¡¯s ability wasn¡¯t that strong, it still hurt him! Tomorrow, he would definitely not let this person off! He wanted to improve his strength tonight! At least, he wanted to be stronger than the person who hurt him! So that these people wouldn¡¯t be able to hurt him anymore! With this thought in mind, He Qi¡¯s eyes became colder and colder, and his eating speed became faster and faster. Meanwhile, Xiang Wanying, who was chatting with He Yi, didn¡¯t notice his change at all. After He Qi finished his meal, he took the initiative to do the dishes. After finished, he said to his parents in the living room who were snuggling together and watching TV, ¡°I¡¯m going back to my room.¡± However, no one responded to him. He Qi¡¯s mouth twitched. They were in love, and he was just an accident! He Qi shook his head and walked to his room. After he returned to his room, he sat on the bed and closed his eyes, feeling the ability in his body. He found a red light hovering around his abdomen. This was a fire attribute ability. How could he improve his ability? Other than eating the meat of ultra beasts, what else could he do to improve his ability? With this thought in mind, He Qi opened his eyes, stood up, and walked to the window. He opened the window and took a breath of fresh air. At this moment, he heard a shout coming from the street 200 meters away from his house. Chapter 3 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°A level-one middle-tier ultra beast, peculiar bear, only two million!¡± ¡°A level-one low-tier ultra beast, flame monkey, only one left!¡± ¡°A level-one high-tier ultra beast crystal core! Sell for five million!¡± ¡°¡­¡± The sounds of peddlers peddling on the streets were very noisy. Ever since the great changes in this world, these ability users had instantly become the mainstream of society. As a result, a lot of products related to ability users were produced. When He Qi heard the hawking, his eyes lit up. He could go to the streets to see if there was anything that could help him level up! With this thought in mind, he walked out of his room and saw his parents still watching TV in the living room.. He said, ¡°I¡¯m going out for a while. I¡¯ll be back soon. Don¡¯t worry.¡± As he spoke, he arrived at the door. ¡°Okay, then you have to be careful. There¡¯s 10 million in this card. If you see anything you want to buy, just buy it.¡± Xiang Wanying walked up to He Qi and took out a card and placed it in his hand. ¡°I got it. You guys rest early.¡± After He Qi finished speaking, he took the card and walked out of the house. He placed the card in his pocket and walked to the street. He looked at the goods sold around him and sighed slightly in his heart. He didn¡¯t find what he wanted. What he wanted was to upgrade his ability to level-one middle or even high-tier tonight. Whether it was the corpses of ultra beasts or the crystal cores. As long as he could upgrade his ability as soon as possible, he could still afford to spend this money. Just as He Qi was walking on the street in disappointment, a voice suddenly caught his attention. ¡°Level-two low-tier fire-attributed beast crystal core! Six million!¡± Hearing the voice, He Qi immediately walked up to the shop. ¡°I¡¯ll take this core.¡± He Qi said. Hearing that, the shop owner¡¯s face immediately beamed with joy. He answered with practice, ¡°This crystal core costs six million. Cash or card?¡± He Qi took out a card from his pocket and said, ¡°By card.¡± As soon as he said this, the shop owner immediately took out a card-swiping machine. He took the card from He Qi and swiped it on the card-swiping machine. The payment was successful. The shop owner placed the crystal core and the card in He Qi¡¯s hand. After He Qi took the crystal core, he walked home without saying a word. Five minutes later, he returned home and found that his parents had already gone back to their room to rest. He returned to his room with light movements and sat down on a chair to look at the crystal core. A familiar voice sounded in his mind. [ Level-two low-tier fire-attributed crystal core! ] [ Available for collection! ] [ Do you wish to collect it? ] When He Qi heard this voice, he said without hesitation, ¡°Collect it!¡± As soon as he said that, the crystal core in front of him instantly surged into his body. It swam around He Qi¡¯s body, constantly burning his bones. The sudden pain caught He Qi off guard. He gritted his teeth and endured. The clothes on his back were all wet with sweat. In less than a minute, the pain disappeared. He reached out his hand and used his mind to activate his ability. The small flame instantly turned into a big flame. He Qing smiled in satisfaction. After retracting his ability, he took his clothes and walked into the bathroom. After washing up, he laid on the bed and slept. The next morning, He Qi was woken up by the alarm clock beside his bed. It was specially set by him last night. He was afraid that he would be late for school today. He got up and walked into the bathroom to wash up. When he came out again, he was already wearing the uniform of the academy. After breakfast, Xiang Wanying brought He Qi to the school. At the school gate, He Qi waved to Xiang Wanying and said, ¡°Go back quickly.¡± She also waved to He Qi and said, ¡°You should go in quickly. Don¡¯t be late.¡± ¡°Then I¡¯ll go in. You should go back quickly too.¡± After He Qi said that, he saw Xiang Wanying nod her head. He walked into the school and found his class according to his memory. He walked into class 20 and sat down in his seat under everyone¡¯s disdainful gazes. At this moment, a burly teenager came to He Qi¡¯s side. ¡°Yo, isn¡¯t it the trash? Why are you still staying in the class?¡± His tone was full of ridicule. Hearing this, He Qi frowned and looked at the teenager. He discovered that this person was the one who had taken the lead to mock and ridicule him after his test and had even used his ability to attack him. His hand turned slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a sneer. The young man didn¡¯t get angry when he saw He Qi. Instead, he was still smiling. Immediately, he used his ability to attack him. Just as his ability was about to attack him, a shield blocked in front of He Qi. ¡°Sheng Heyi, don¡¯t go too far!¡± A girl came from the door. The girl walked up to He Qi and confronted him. ¡°He¡¯s just a useless piece of trash who can¡¯t contribute to society. Why are you protecting him?!¡± Sheng Heyi said angrily. He didn¡¯t understand why the girl was protecting He Qi so much. Ever since the world had changed, he had seen too many ordinary people dragging down the ability users. Not only could they not kill ultra beasts, but they could also distract ability user from protecting them. They were especially useless! Therefore, he had always hated ordinary people without abilities! When he found out that He Qi wasn¡¯t talented and was an ordinary person, he immediately attacked him. In any case, these ordinary people didn¡¯t dare to offend ability user. They needed ability user to protect them. So what if He Qi was attacked? He couldn¡¯t resist! ¡°Even if he couldn¡¯t contribute to society, you can¡¯t hurt people like this, right? You¡¯ve gone too far!¡± the girl looked at Sheng Heyi coldly. ¡°I¡¯ve gone too far? These useless people who are a burden to ability users should all disappear from the world!¡± While speaking, Sheng Heyi used his ability to attack He Qi. Chapter 4 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The girl also used her ability to block his attack. At this moment, a ball of flame ignited the corner of Sheng Heyi¡¯s cloth. The people beside him didn¡¯t know where this ball of flame came from. They only knew that his cloth suddenly started to burn, but the fire wasn¡¯t very big. ¡°Sheng Heyi, your clothes are on fire!!!¡± ¡°Quickly put out the fire! Where are the water attribute ability users?¡± ¡°The fire is getting bigger! Put out the fire! Otherwise, the whole classroom will be burned!!¡± For a moment, everyone in the classroom was in a mess. ¡°Help me put out the fire!!!¡± Sheng Heyi shouted anxiously. Although the fire couldn¡¯t really burn his body, he still felt a tingling pain. Moreover, he was still very scared out of instinct! The water-attribute ability users started to use their abilities on Sheng Heyi. However, they found that the fire couldn¡¯t be extinguished no matter how hard they tried! ¡°It can¡¯t be extinguished! What should we do?!!¡± ¡°It¡¯s over now. The water-attribute ability users can¡¯t extinguish fire!!¡± Looking at how panic Sheng Heyi was, He Qi smiled happily. Last night, his upgraded his ability to level-one middle-tier. If there was no one with a stronger ability than him to extinguish the fire, or if he took back the fire, the fire would not be extinguished. At this moment, the sound of ¡°Deng! Deng! Deng!¡± was transmitted into everyone¡¯s ears. A female teacher walked up to the podium. With a raise of her hand, the fire on Sheng Heyi¡¯s body was instantly extinguished. She looked at these students coldly and said in a cold voice, ¡°Go back to your seats!¡± As soon as she said that, the students instantly returned to their seats, and the entire classroom became very quiet. The teacher glanced at the students below and saw that they all sat down obediently. Only then did her expression ease up and she said, ¡°I¡¯m your new class teacher. My name is Yu Qingyuan.¡± ¡°I hope that I will never see a farce like just now again. I don¡¯t want to see any bullies in my class.¡± As she said this, Yu Qingyuan¡¯s cold eyes swept across the students below. The students who saw her eyes were shocked and nodded one after another. Yu Qingyuan looked at the obedient students below and was very satisfied. Then, she said, ¡°In two days, the school will let you go to the hunting ground for the training.¡± As soon as she said this, everyone¡¯s faces revealed a pleasantly surprised smile. ¡°Miss Yu, where is the training venue?¡± A girl suddenly asked. He Qi looked over and found that it was the girl who had helped him just now. When Yu Qingyuan heard the question, she immediately replied, ¡°The training venue is the wild area in the south of the city.¡± Hearing Yu Qingyuan¡¯s answer, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. The ultra beasts in the wild area were different from those in the hunting grounds. Not only were the ultra beasts there of high levels, but they were also very ferocious. Wouldn¡¯t this training be a one-way trip? Yu Qingyuan could see their worries and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. All the ultra beasts above level two in the wilderness have been cleared by the members of the storm team. There is a hunting area with a circumference of thirty miles, which can be used by our students for the training.¡± ¡°In addition, another teacher and I will follow you all the way. There will also be members of the storm team accompanying us.¡± After she finished speaking, everyone immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, there were no more level-two or above ultra beasts in the wild area. With the two teachers and the members of the storm team following them, their safety could be guaranteed. At this moment, Sheng Heyi, who was sitting in the front, said, ¡°Miss, He Qi doesn¡¯t have any ability. Is he going to the training as well?¡± As soon as he said that, the classroom was immediately filled with discussions. ¡°That¡¯s right. He¡¯ll drag us down when the time comes!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. We should expel him!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. Quickly expel him! He doesn¡¯t have the right to participate in the training!¡± ¡°¡­¡± Hearing these people¡¯s words, He Qi was annoyed. Pa! The classroom immediately became quiet again. Yu Qingyuan looked at He Qi and said, ¡°What they said makes sense. From today on, you¡­¡± She stopped talking when she saw the flame on He Qi¡¯s hand and looked at him in surprise. She could tell what level his ability was from the flame on He Qi¡¯s hand. She was very shocked. She had heard what happened on the day of the test from the other teachers. This student didn¡¯t have any talents. She didn¡¯t expect that he had gone from an ordinary person to a level-one middle-tier ability user in just two days! Everyone in the classroom was extremely shocked. They looked at the flame on his hand in disbelief. He clearly didn¡¯t have any talents in the test two days ago. How did he become an ability user in just two days? This was too unbelievable! ¡°Am I qualified now?¡± He Qi looked at the stunned crowd and asked. Hearing He Qi¡¯s words, everyone came back to their senses. Yu Qingyuan coughed lightly and said, ¡°Since you¡¯ve become an ability user, you¡¯re naturally qualified to participate in the training.¡± Hearing Yu Qingyuan¡¯s words, He Qi revealed a satisfied smile. Yu Qingyuan¡¯s voice sounded again. ¡°Alright, you can study on your own for the rest of the time. If there¡¯s anything you don¡¯t understand, you can come and ask me.¡± After saying this, she gave He Qi a deep look before walking out of the classroom. He Qi took out a book about the fire attribute from his drawer and started reading. Sheng Heyi in front turned around and looked at He Qi. So he was the one who set fire to his clothes! There was no one in this classroom used fire attribute ability. Where did the fire come from? So it was all his fault! And he made a fool of himself in front of so many people! He would definitely revenge! Chapter 5 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio He Qi knew that there was a fierce gaze looking at him, but he ignored it. He continued to read the book in his hand. The book inside could help him master the fire attribute more freely. He was very engrossed in reading, and before he knew it, it was time for school to end. He Qi put down the book, stood up, and walked out of the classroom. When Sheng Heyi saw He Qi walk out of the classroom, he quickly stood up and followed him. Just as He Qi was about to leave the school gate, a figure blocked his way. ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± He Qi¡¯s tone was cold. It was Sheng Heyi.. This person actually dared to appear in front of him. Had he not had enough of the taste of his ability? Sheng Heyi didn¡¯t say anything, but directly used his ability on him. He Qi hurriedly turned sideways to dodge his attack, while he himself also used his ability to attack him. Balls of fire burned the area around Sheng Heyi, preventing him from advancing. Sheng Heyi couldn¡¯t extinguish the fire no matter how hard he tried, He Qi sneered when he saw it. This fire wasn¡¯t something you could extinguish at will! Even if it couldn¡¯t really burn him to death, it could still make him feel the burning despair! Looking at Sheng Heyi that were surrounded by fire, He Qi sneered and left. He Qi walked into the house and closed the door. Xiang Wanying, who was sitting on the sofa, looked over when she heard the sound of the door closing. When she saw He Qi, who had already returned home, she asked, ¡°How¡¯s school?¡± He Qi walked to the living room and sat beside Xiang Wanying. He said, ¡°It¡¯s alright. We¡¯ll be going to participate in the training in two days.¡± ¡°Oh? Where are you going?¡± Hearing He Qi¡¯s words, Xiang Wanying asked doubtfully. ¡°The wild area in the south of the city.¡± He Qi replied. ¡°What? That place is so dangerous! Why are you guys allowed to go there?¡± hearing He Qi¡¯s words, Xiang Wanying said in shock. He Qi covered one side of his ear and moved to the side. Only then did he say, ¡°There will be teachers and the storm team following us the entire way.¡± Xiang Wanying frowned when she heard this. She said worriedly, ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter they will follow you guys along the way. It¡¯s just that the level of the ultra beasts in the wild area is too high.¡± ¡°All the ultra beasts above level two in the wild area have been cleared out, leaving a place for us to train.¡± He Qi explained patiently. Hearing this, Xiang Wanying heaved a sigh of relief. It turned out that there were no ultra beasts above level two in the place where they were training. She could rest assured about He Qi¡¯s safety. At that moment, He Yi¡¯s voice sounded. ¡°Time to eat!¡± Hearing his voice, Xiang Wanying replied, ¡°Coming.¡± Then, she followed He Qi to the dining table. They sat down and began to eat. ¡ª When He Qi returned home, at a certain place in the school. When the ability He Qi had used was faded, Sheng Heyi finally broke free. At this moment, there wasn¡¯t a single part of his body that was dry. He gritted his teeth and walked out of the school gate. Under the strange gazes of everyone on the street, he returned home. He would definitely not let He Qi off! He had to think of a way to deal with He Qi. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and a strange smile appeared on his face. He had already thought of a way to deal with He Qi! ¡ª After finishing his meal, He Qi returned to his room, stood by the window, and started to use his ability outside. He wanted to see if what he had read in the books today would be useful. He stretched out his hand and started to use his ability. Suddenly, a large cluster of flames floated in the air. He Qi waved his fingers, and the flames followed his fingers. ¡°Not bad.¡± He Qi withdrew his ability and said with satisfaction. He closed the window and rested. Time flew by. It was time to start the training. After He Qi was ready, he walked out of his house and came to the school. At the school gate, there were many students and several buses. At this moment, they were lining up to get on the buses. He Qi found his class, lined up with them, and then walked on the buses. After he got into the car, he found a seat by the window and sat down. At that moment, a person suddenly sat down beside him. He turned around and found that it was the girl who had defended him yesterday. ¡°Hello, my name is Xu Shiying.¡± The girl smiled and said to him. He Qi smiled and said, ¡°My name is He Qi. Thank you for helping me yesterday.¡± He Qi had a very good impression of her because of what had happened yesterday. But at the same time, he was very puzzled as to why she had to protect him. Logically speaking, ability users hated ordinary people very much. On the contrary, she was very protective of these ordinary people. Driven by curiosity, he asked, ¡°Why did you protect me yesterday?¡± Xu Shiying said, ¡°We became ability users only to fight against ultra beasts, not to fight against our own kind.¡± As she said that, a hint of grief flashed across her eyes. He Qi didn¡¯t see her expression. Instead, he felt that what she said was absolutely correct! They became ability users because the world had changed. However, those who became ability users gradually lost their original intentions. They felt that they were more noble than ordinary people. They even used their abilities to attack ordinary people. If such bizarre thing hadn¡¯t happened in this world, they would still be ordinary people as well! He Qi sneered. He wanted to talk to Xu Shiying again, but when he looked over, he found that she was already asleep. He didn¡¯t make any more sounds. He tilted his head to the side and started to rest like her. He didn¡¯t know how long this training would last, and if it wouldn¡¯t last for a week. There was still a certain distance from the wild area in the south of the city. It would take at least two hours to drive. These two hours might as well be used to rest. After all the students got on the bus, the bus began to drive towards the wild area in the south of the city. At first, the students on the bus were excited and playful, but as they got further, it became quieter and quieter. They all began to rest. Chapter 6 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The moment the bus stopped, He Qi opened his eyes. The moment he opened his eyes, he saw that Xu Shiying had just opened her eyes. ¡°We¡¯re here.¡± He Qi said to Xu Shiying, who had just woken up and was in a daze. ¡°Okay.¡± Hearing He Qi¡¯s voice, Xu Shiying was completely awake. The two of them got off the bus and stood outside the wild area in the south of the city. At this moment, someone placed two things that looked like watches on their hands and asked them to put them on. After everyone got off the car and put on their watches. The male teacher beside Yu Qingyuan held a megaphone and said, ¡°This training will last for five days.¡± ¡°The rules of the training are that you can form a team of no more than three people, and you can also fight alone.¡± ¡°This training will be in the form of points. The display in your hands will show the level of the ultra beasts you have killed. The more ultra beasts you have killed and the higher their levels are, your points will be higher.¡± He Qi looked at the display on his wrist. So that was the function of this display. No wonder they were allowed to wear it the moment they got off the bus. ¡°The first place of this training will receive three level-two high-tier ultra beast crystal cores, which will be distributed according to your attributes.¡± ¡°The second place will receive four level-two low-tier ultra beast crystal cores, which will also be distributed according to your attributes.¡± ¡°The third place will receive five level-one middle-tier ultra beast crystal cores, which will be distributed according to your attributes.¡± Such a reward could be said to be very generous! ¡°If you encounter danger, you can press the red button on the display. We will rush over to rescue you when we receive the call. There are countless risks in the wild area. You must pay attention to your safety!¡± ¡°Have you all heard the rules clearly?¡± The male teacher said. ¡°Yes!¡± All the students replied loudly. ¡°Then you can now find your teammates and enter the wild area!¡± After saying that, the male teacher stood beside Yu Qingyuan. He Qi, who was in the crowd, looked at Xu Shiying and asked, ¡°Should we form a team?¡± Hearing her voice, Xu Shiying turned her head to look at He Qi, then nodded and said, ¡°Yes.¡± Hearing her words, He Qi smiled and said, ¡°Then let¡¯s go in.¡± Xu Shiying nodded, and then the two walked into the wild area together. The wild area was completely different from the wild area. The wild area was lush with leaves. It was different from the wasteland at the outside. The trees here grew very quickly, reaching a height of two meters. The pneuma in the wild area was very dense. The ultra beasts here could absorb pneuma just like humans. This was also the reason why the ultra beasts in the wild area were very dangerous. But while they were dangerous, there were also many opportunities. In the wild area, there were many medicinal herbs that could be refined into pills, or even poisons. Every item here could be sold at an extremely expensive price in the market! Many ultra beasts would even store their favorite treasures. Perhaps, they would find many boxes in the nests of ultra beasts, with many rare space gems inside. These space gems could not only be sold for money but could even be used to make space bracelets! Space bracelets made of ten space gems only had a square storage space. It could be seen how precious these space gems were! After he qi and Xu Shiying walked into the wild area, Sheng Heyi followed them. He formed a team with two boys, walking in the opposite direction of He Qi and Xu Shiying. He Qi and Xu Shiying carefully walked in the wild area. Not far in front of them, a pair of green eyes appeared in the grass. It was staring at the two people who were walking towards it. At that moment, He Qi looked at the grass vigilantly. He had just felt a sinister and fierce gaze looking at him. All of a sudden, an ultra beast suddenly darted out from the grass. Its sharp claws slashed forward, attacking the two people. Seeing a black shadow appear, He Qi immediately pulled Xu Shiying back a few steps, using his ability to attack it. Seeing that, Xu Shiying also attacked it. Xu Shiying¡¯s ability attribute was wood attribute, which was the rarest attribute among all attributes. Out of 50 ability users, there would only be one wood attribute ability user. Wood attribute ability users not only had the ability to attack, but also had the ability to heal. Regardless of the severity of the injury, as long as a wood attribute ability user healed it, it would be healed. This was the first time He Qi had seen her use her ability to attack an ultra beast. Looking at how she was very skilled at attacking ultra beasts, it seemed that she had already mastered the wood attribute ability. He Qi came back to his senses and looked at the cat that had appeared in front of him. He had read about it in a book before. This strange beast was called the Dark Blade Cat. Although it was only a level one medium-sized beast, its sharp blade was very sharp. It could cut through a ten-year-old tree. The sharp blade was its hard weapon, but it was also its weakness. The two of them attacked its sharp claws, but it dodged both of them. Its sharp claws were a very precious weapon to it. How could it let them attack it so easily? The Dark Blade Cat dodged their attacks. However, no matter how hard it tried to dodge, it couldn¡¯t dodge He Qi¡¯s flames. Layers of flames surrounded the Dark Blade Cat. It struggled with all its might, but to no avail. In the end, the ultra beast fell into He Qi¡¯s fire circle under the attacks of the two of them. After seeing the Dark Blade Cat fall, He Qi withdrew his ability. At this moment, the system¡¯s voice sounded in his mind. [ Level-one middle-tier Dark Blade Cat! ] [ Available for collection! ] [ Do you wish to collect it? ] He Qi muttered to himself, ¡°Collect it.¡± As soon as he finished speaking, the system¡¯s voice sounded again. [ Successful collection! ] [ Level-one low-tier wind attribute ability obtained! ] [ Do you wish to awaken it? ] Chapter 7 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio He Qi muttered in his heart, ¡°I won¡¯t awaken it for the time being.¡± He didn¡¯t choose to awaken his wind attribute ability right now. It was daytime, and he was still in the wild area. If an ultra beast suddenly appeared during the process of awakening, he would suffer a backlash. The time for awakening wasn¡¯t long. Perhaps, he could awaken it in a safe place. ¡°It¡¯s already dark. Let¡¯s find a place to rest for the night.¡± He Qi looked at the dark sky and said to Xu Shiying. ¡°Should we take this ultra beast with us?¡± Xu Shiying pointed at the Dark Blade Cat on the ground and said.. ¡°Of course.¡± After He Qi said that, he grabbed one of the Dark Blade Cat¡¯s legs on the ground and looked for a place to rest with Xu Shiying. The wild areas at night were much more dangerous than the wild areas during the day. These ultra beasts liked to come out at night to look for food. They would take advantage of other ultra beasts or humans when they were resting and not paying attention to them, kill them, and then swallow them into their stomachs. The two of them walked for half an hour with the corpse of an ultra beast. They finally found a small cave that was enough for the two of them to rest in. He Qi dragged the Dark Blade Cat¡¯s corpse into the cave. He placed the corpse on the ground, walked out of the cave, and picked up the tree branches on the ground. Seeing this, Xu Shiying, who was in the cave, grabbed the Dark Blade Cat and began to deal with it. When He Qi lit the fire, Xu Shiying also finished dealing with the Dark Blade Cat. He Qi took the Dark Blade Cat from her hand and placed it on the fire to roast it. The sky outside was completely dark. The two of them were roasting the Dark Blade Cat¡¯s meat by the fire in the cave. Sparks flew everywhere, and the meat on the fire also made a sizzling sound. He Qi sprinkled some seasoning on the meat and turned it over to roast it. After roasting it for three minutes, the fragrance came out. Xu Shiying took a deep breath and said, ¡°It smells so good!¡± Hearing her words, He Qi smiled and said, ¡°We can eat it in a few minutes.¡± Xu Shiying¡¯s eyes were fixated on the meat roasting on the fire. She couldn¡¯t help but swallow her saliva and replied, ¡°Yes.¡± The aroma of the roasted meat spread out from the cave. It attracted the ultra beasts that were looking for food. The ultra beasts drooled as they walked towards the source of the aroma. Meanwhile, the two people who had already eaten the roasted meat in the cave were completely unaware of this. Right at this moment, on a tree outside the cave, an ultra beast was staring at the remaining roasted meat in the cave. It stretched out its hand, grabbed the vine, and leaped forward. In a few moments, it arrived at the tree closest to the cave. In the cave, He Qi said to Xu Shiying, ¡°You sleep first. I¡¯ll keep watch.¡± ¡°If an ultra beast appears, I¡¯m afraid you won¡¯t be able to deal with it alone. It¡¯s better if we keep watch together.¡± Xu Shiying looked at He Qi and said. Hearing this, He Qi smiled and said, ¡°If the ultra beast comes, I can wake you up and deal with it together.¡± Hearing He Qi¡¯s words, Xu Shiying was stunned for a moment. That¡¯s right. Why didn¡¯t she think of this? It seemed that she had really been overly vigilant. She snapped back to her senses and saw He Qi smiling at her. Her face immediately turned red. She immediately walked to the side and closed her eyes to sleep. He Qi looked at her like this and shook his head with a smile. He turned his head to look outside the cave vigilantly. An hour later, He Qi was standing up and stretching. At this moment, a burst of sound suddenly came from the entrance of the cave. This made He Qi even more vigilant. He was prepared to immediately attack any ultra beasts that came in. The noises outside grew louder and louder, as if several ultra beasts were snatching food. Gradually, the noises got closer and closer, and He Qi woke Xu Shiying up. Hearing the noises, Xu Shiying immediately stood up and prepared herself, just like He Qi. At this moment, two ultra beasts walked in from outside. Upon seeing the ultra beasts, the two of them immediately used their abilities to attack them. The two ultra beasts were bound by the vines. They stretched out their hands and tore the vines apart. One of the ultra beasts hammered the ground, and the ground cracked. The two of them had no choice but to retreat. Xu Shiying once again used her ability to bind the two ultra beasts. Seeing this, He Qi immediately used his ability on the vines tied to the ultra beasts. The fire spread in an instant, causing the two level-one low-tier ultra beasts to fall to the ground and roll around. They used their rolling to try to extinguish the fire. However, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn¡¯t extinguish the fire. Seeing this, Xu Shiying once again used her ability on the two ultra beasts. This was undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire. Suddenly, the two ultra beasts stopped struggling. Just as the two thought that they had been killed, they withdrew their abilities. The two ultra beasts attacked them. A strong wind blew in the cave, causing the ground to shake violently. He Qi immediately pulled Xu Shiying to support herself against the wall, not forgetting to use his ability to attack the ultra beasts. ¡°We must kill them quickly, or we won¡¯t be able to stay here any longer!¡± He Qi frowned and said loudly. After hearing those words, Xu Shiying replied loudly, ¡°Alright!¡± Following that, the two of them used their abilities to attack the two ultra beasts. These two ultra beasts were both level-one low-tier, while He Qi had already risen to level-one middle-tier. Although he didn¡¯t know Xu Shiying¡¯s level, He Qi was certain that she wasn¡¯t a low-level-one. Judging from her skillful maneuvers, it was unlikely that she was still at low-level-one. The two of them had a tacit understanding when dealing with the two ultra beasts and knew how to work together to maximize the damage. In less than twenty minutes, the two ultra beasts fell to the ground. He Qi looked at the two ultra beasts, and the system¡¯s voice appeared in his mind. [ low-level first-level ultra beast, Peculiar Bear, Mountain Glider! ] [ Available for collection! ] [ Do you wish to collect? ] He Qi thought to himself, ¡°Collect it!¡± Although these two ultra beasts were low tier, they could slowly level up through the later stages. If he guessed correctly, one of these two ultra beasts was of the wind attribute, while the other was of the earth attribute. Now, he already had the fire attribute, and hadn¡¯t awakened the wind attribute yet. If he had another earth attribute¡­ He didn¡¯t know if he could level up his ability with these attributes at the same time. Chapter 8 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio [ Successful collection! ] [ Acquired level-one low-tier wind attribute, level-one low-tier earth attribute! ] [ Do you wish to awaken it? ] He Qi thought to himself, ¡®not yet.¡¯ He didn¡¯t awaken the two abilities immediately. Instead, he looked outside the cave vigilantly. The noises outside the cave never stopped. ¡°I wonder what delicious food they¡¯ve found. They¡¯re fighting so fiercely.¡± Xu Shiying whispered as she listened to the noises outside. At this moment, she saw the barbecued meat on the bonfire.. The bonfire had been put out, but she could still smell the aroma of the barbecued meat. She pointed at the barbecued meat on the bonfire and said softly, ¡°Don¡¯t tell me they¡¯re here for this?¡± He Qi looked at the roasted meat she was pointing at and replied, ¡°It¡¯s very possible.¡± The ultra beasts in the wild area either ate the herbs in the wild area or the food they found. Every part of their bodies was raised to be a treasure. When he was roasting the meat just now, even Xu Shiying, who was beside him, swallowed her saliva. Not to mention the ultra beasts that came out to hunt for food at night! ¡°Then what should we do now? Should we throw the rest of the meat out?¡± Xu Shiying said with a frown. It was unknown how many ultra beasts were coveting the fat meat outside. He Qi nodded and said, ¡°They should have smelled it and come here.¡± As he spoke, he walked to the side of the fire, took the meat out from the tree branches, and then walked to the entrance of the cave. The sounds of their fighting became clearer at the entrance of the cave. He Qi threw the meat in his hand out. He had specifically targeted the farthest place to throw it. The fat meat flew in the air, landing where He Qi wanted to throw it. The ultra beasts who smelled the fragrance watched the piece of meat streak through the air. Finally, it landed on the ground. For a moment, these ultra beasts all ran toward the meat. Seeing the ultra beasts run far away, He Qi heaved a sigh of relief and walked back to Xu Shiying¡¯s side. He said to her, ¡°They¡¯re already far away.¡± ¡°Looks like we can¡¯t roast these ultra beasts in our resting places anymore.¡± Xu Shiying said. If this continued, there would probably be many ultra beasts coming over every day. But this wasn¡¯t a bad thing. They could attract more ultra beasts to come over and let them kill them so that they could get first place. It was just that they couldn¡¯t rest anymore. He Qi also knew this logic, and he agreed with Xu Shiying¡¯s words. ¡°You should go and rest. I¡¯ll keep watch for the rest of the night.¡± At this moment, Xu Shiying turned her head and said to He Qi. He Qi nodded, then walked to a corner and sat down to rest. He closed his eyes but didn¡¯t sleep. Instead, he silently said in his heart, ¡°Awaken the wind attribute ability.¡± As soon as he said that, something in the air seemed to rush into his body. At this moment, his body was being blown by the wind fiercely, as if it was going to cut his flesh with a knife. He Qi endured the pain, and in less than a minute, the pain disappeared. He took a breath, wiped the sweat off his forehead, and then started to rest. Xu Shiying, who was on night watch, didn¡¯t notice He Qi¡¯s change at all. The sky gradually brightened. After He Qi woke up, the two of them tidied up and walked out of the cave. Not long after the two of them walked out of the cave, two people suddenly walked towards them from the left. They came in front of He Qi and Xu Shiying. A tall and thin youth said, ¡°We are from year two class-8. Can we join you guys? we can win first place together.¡± Hearing his words, He Qi and Xu Shiying looked at each other. They could see the approval in each other¡¯s eyes. However, neither of them said anything. They didn¡¯t agree or disagree. They just wanted to see how much they wanted to join their team. Seeing that neither of them said anything, the thin teenager seemed to know what they were thinking, ¡°We really want to join you. He¡¯s an earth user and I¡¯m a thunder user.¡± Hearing this, He Qi said coldly, ¡°You can join us, but if I find out that you stab us in the back, I will let you suffer!¡± Opposite two people hear He Qi ice-cold tone, plus this do not know when the wind blowing. It made their bodies involuntarily tremble. ¡°Of course not!¡± The thin teenager immediately said, and the sturdy teenager beside him nodded repeatedly. Seeing their reactions, He Qi¡¯s expression eased up, and he asked, ¡°What are your names?¡± The thin teenager replied, ¡°My name is Zhao Yu, and his name is Luo Qing.¡± Hearing Zhao Yu¡¯s words, He Qi nodded, indicating that he understood. After that, the four of them carefully walked in the wild area together. Right behind them, a strange beast was crawling on the ground, quietly following behind them. After walking for ten minutes, they arrived at a swamp. At this moment, the head of a strange beast suddenly appeared in the swamp. ¡°A low-level-one strange beast.¡± He Qi said. As soon as he finished speaking, the four of them used their abilities to attack the strange beast. Just as the four of them were attacking the ultra beast in the swamp, the ultra beast that had been quietly following behind them suddenly came up to attack them. After He Qi felt a fierce killing intent behind them, he turned around and saw that there was actually a ultra beast behind them. And now, it was about to attack them. ¡°Watch your back!¡± As He Qi spoke, he suddenly turned around and attacked the ultra beast. The three of them didn¡¯t look back when they heard the voice. Instead, they were dealing with the ultra beast in the swamp. Xu Shiying suddenly turned around and attacked the crawling ultra beast together with He Qi. Chapter 9 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Suddenly, the beast¡¯s tail wrapped itself around the tree next to it. It suddenly shrank under the tree and slid up along the tree. Seeing this, He Qi and Xu Shiying walked over. The vines quickly circled around the tree and walked side by side with the beast. Then, they quickly tied the beast up. They tied it up and pulled it down hard, causing it to fall heavily to the ground. He Qi used his ability to attack it. The ball of fire was instantly ignited, and the ultra beast was writhing in the fire. In less than ten minutes, the ultra beast was successfully killed by them. At this moment, a cry came from behind them.. ¡°Come quickly, this ultra beast¡¯s strength has suddenly increased greatly!¡± Zhao Yu shouted while using his ability to attack the ultra beast in the swamp. Hearing the voice, He Qi and Xu Shiying immediately went back to attack the ultra beast. As they attacked, they asked Zhao Yu beside them, ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡± Zhao Yu replied, ¡°When we were attacking, it suddenly dived into the swamp. When it came out again, its strength had obviously increased.¡± Hearing Zhao Yu¡¯s words, He Qi frowned. Suddenly increased its strength? Could it be that there was some treasure in the swamp that could increase its strength? With this thought in mind, the movements of their hands became more and more vicious as the four of them attacked the ultra beast. Suddenly, it retreated back into the swamp. Seeing this, Zhao Yu immediately said, ¡°That was how it was just now. When it comes out again, its strength will definitely increase!¡± As soon as Zhao Yu finished speaking, the ultra beast appeared in front of them once again and attacked them. The four of them hurriedly dodged its attack and then attacked it mercilessly. As Zhao Yu had said, its strength had indeed increased by a lot. That meant that there must be something in this swamp that could strengthen the ultra beast. This thing might be able to be used by them, and it would also strengthen their strength. ¡°There¡¯s something in this swamp that can increase its strength.¡± He Qi said. His attack speed became faster and faster. When the others heard that, they quickly and fiercely attacked the ultra beast as well. Since the treasure could increase the ultra beast¡¯s strength, of course it could also increase their strength. This ultra beast had dived in the swamp twice. There might be many things in here that could increase their strength. The ultra beast was about to dive into the swamp again. He Qi shouted, ¡°Stop it! Don¡¯t let it enter the swamp!¡± Hearing his words, the few of them used their abilities to stop the ultra beast that was trying to enter the swamp. The vines wrapped around its head fiercely and pulled it back. Luo Qing used his ability to block the ultra beast in the swamp. For a moment, the ultra beast couldn¡¯t return to its nest and endure their attacks. In less than 20 minutes, the beast was killed by them. The swamp on the ground suddenly disappeared, revealing a beast and a small hole in the ground. They could clearly see the glowing beast crystal cores in the hole. ¡°So many!¡± Luo Qing¡¯s eyes lit up as he looked at the beast crystal cores in the hole and exclaimed. ¡°Fish them out first.¡± He Qi said. He was also very shocked when he saw so many crystal cores. He didn¡¯t expect this ultra beast to hide so many of them! When they took all the crystal cores out of the cave, the sun had already set. ¡°We¡¯ll find a place to rest first and distribute these crystal cores.¡± After He Qi finished speaking, he put the crystal cores into his bag. The others nodded and agreed with He Qi¡¯s suggestion. Then, the four of them set off to find a safe place to rest. The cave where He Qi and Xu Shiying stayed yesterday was no longer safe. Ultra beasts would run over from time to time. The ultra beasts were after the delicious meal, many of them were waiting around the cave So, they could only find a new cave, or a relatively safe place. Half an hour later, the four of them finally found a new cave before dark. However, there was an ultra beast sleeping in this cave. ¡°Can¡¯t we just kill this ultra beast?¡± Looking at the three people who were hesitating whether to enter or not, He Qi said. When the others heard his words, they all came to a sudden realization. He Qi¡¯s words made sense. After killing the ultra beast, this cave would be theirs. Thinking of this, the few of them walked into the cave and attacked the sleeping ultra beast without saying a word. The ultra beast was awakened by the sudden attack. When it opened its eyes, it saw four people attacking it. It roared and retaliated with its sharp claws. The four people hurriedly retreated and dodged its attack. The vines tied its two legs together, making it unable to walk. It took four of them less than twenty minutes to kill the ultra beast. They cleaned up the place. He Qi poured out all the crystal cores and inspected them. He found that there were all kinds of crystal cores with different attributes. He took out a low-level-two wood attribute crystal core and gave it to Xu Shiying. Then, he gave the low-level-two thunder attribute and earth attribute crystal cores to Zhao Yu and Luo Qing. Then, he said, ¡°Now, Zhao Yu and Luo Qing will absorb the crystal cores first to improve their special abilities ¡°After you guys have absorbed them, Xu Shiying and I will absorb them.¡± ¡°You two will keep watch for the first half of the night, and we¡¯ll keep watch for the second half of the night.¡± After He Qi finished speaking, they nodded. Then, they picked up their crystal cores and sat to the side, beginning to improve their abilities. He Qi walked out of the cave with the carcass of the ultra beast, leaving Xu Shiying to stay in the cave. He stopped at a place further away from the cave to clean up the ultra beast. After cleaning it up, he set up a bonfire and began to roast the ultra beast. Half an hour later, He Qi returned to the cave with the ultra beast that had already been roasted. He found that Zhao Yu and Luo Qing had already finished absorbing the crystal cores. He said to Luo Qing, ¡°Can you seal up the entire cave?¡± Luo Qing nodded and said, ¡°Yes.¡± Chapter 10 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio He Qi pointed at the entrance of the cave and said, ¡°Then seal the entrance of the cave. As long as you can ensure that the beasts can¡¯t enter, you don¡¯t have to seal it too tightly.¡± Hearing He Qi¡¯s words, Luo Qing nodded his head and used his ability on the entrance of the cave. With a bang, the entrance of the cave was instantly sealed. They looked at the entrance of the cave and found that it was as if a door had been installed at the entrance. It wasn¡¯t completely sealed, and the beasts wouldn¡¯t be able to enter. ¡°This way, we won¡¯t have to worry so much at night.¡± He Qi looked at Luo Qing¡¯s masterpiece and said with satisfaction. Then, he distributed the meat in his hands to them. After eating, He Qi sat on the ground, holding a low-level two wind attributed crystal core in his hand. He thought to himself, ¡°Collect the crystal core.¡± Immediately, the crystal core in his hand turned into a beam of light and surged into his body. He Qi gritted his teeth and endured the pain for more than ten seconds. After the pain, he could clearly feel that his wind attribute ability had improved. Although it was still a low-level-one ability, it was about to break through from a low-level ability to a middle-level ability! After successfully absorbing the crystal core, He Qi began to rest. The entrance of the cave was sealed. As expected, no ultra beasts came to attack them that night. It was rare for them to have a good night¡¯s rest. Early in the morning, the four of them packed up and walked out of the cave. After they left the cave, He Qi even specially asked Luo Qing to seal the cave. ¡°Why are we still sealing it? Didn¡¯t we leave already?¡± Luo Qing scratched the back of his head and asked in confusion. ¡°The wild area that we can walk in is only so small. We can even return to this cave to rest.¡± He Qi explained. Hearing his explanation, they immediately understood that Luo Qing had followed He Qi¡¯s instructions and sealed the entrance of the cave again. After doing all this, the few of them walked in the wild area. At this moment, a small team walked in front of them. He Qi and the other three kept walking forward. When the two teams approached, they finally saw the other party¡¯s face clearly. It was really a narrow road for enemies. They thought that they would not encounter each other in the entire training. Indeed, the wild area was too small. They met other team in just three days. He Qi and the other three ignored the other party and directly brushed past them. The five people on the opposite side also did not say a word. They only stopped after taking a few steps. The leader turned around and looked at the backs of the four people who were gradually walking away. The corners of his mouth curled into a cold smile. He whispered, ¡°I¡¯ve finally found you!¡± The team member who heard the voice said, ¡°Captain, what are you talking about?¡± When that person heard this, his face turned cold and he said, ¡°Keep walking!¡± They walked on another path. After walking for half an hour, they would meet He Qi¡¯s team again. This was the place he had specially chosen. He wanted He Qi to have a taste of his defeat! He Qi and the other three walked in the wild area. Suddenly, there was a series of rumbling sounds. Everyone looked at Luo Qing. Luo Qing revealed a silly smile and said, ¡°Hehe, I¡¯m hungry.¡± They had eaten the dried food in their bags in the morning before they set off. They had only walked for half an hour, and Luo Qing was already hungry. ¡°Let¡¯s find a place to eat something first.¡± He Qi said. Then, the four of them found a safe meadow and sat on the ground, eating the fruits they had picked from the trees. Just as they were about to get up after eating, a series of sounds came from the distance. The sounds grew louder and louder, getting closer and closer to them. The four of them were full of vigilance as they looked at the source of the sounds. They saw dozens of ultra beasts running in their direction. ¡°My God! So many ultra beasts!¡± Luo Qing exclaimed. ¡°Why are there suddenly so many ultra beasts?¡± Xu Shiying said with a frown. ¡°We are not a match for these ultra beasts. Let¡¯s find a place to hide first!¡± He Qi looked at the ultra beasts running over and said coldly. When they heard He Qi¡¯s words, they brought their things and ran to a safe place to hide. But no matter where they went, these ultra beasts would follow them. ¡°What should we do?¡± Zhao Yu looked at the ultra beasts behind him and said. ¡°If we really can¡¯t do it, we can only go head-on!¡± He Qi suddenly stopped, turned around, and attacked these ultra beasts. When the other three heard this, they gritted their teeth and followed He Qi to attack these ultra beasts. If they went all out, they might even be able to kill all of these ultra beasts! The four of them were dealing with over a dozen ultra beasts, but how could they possibly defeat the majority of them. ¡°We can¡¯t fight them head-on, we can only outsmart them!¡± He Qi looked at the large number of ultra beasts and said to the three of them. ¡°Shiying, use your ability to tie up these ultra beasts, and make more vines around them.¡± ¡°Luo Qing, use your ability to tie up these ultra beasts. Make the space bigger!¡± He Qi instructed. Xu Shiying and Luo Qing followed He Qi¡¯s instructions and used their abilities on these ultra beasts. When Luo Qing saw Xu Shiying using her ability to tie up these ultra beasts, he immediately surrounded them. Seeing this, He Qi used his own ability to light up the vines under the ultra beasts. The fire spread in an instant, reaching the vines that were tied to their bodies. ¡°Zhao Yu, use your ability to attack them.¡± He Qi gave the last order. Zhao Yu also listened to He Qi¡¯s order, and used his ability to attack the ultra beasts. The four of them killed all the ultra beasts in less than an hour. When they saw all the ultra beasts lying on the ground, they heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, He Qi had thought of such a good idea. Otherwise, they would have been able to walk out of here alive today. ¡°Why are there suddenly so many ultra beasts?¡± Xu Shiying said with a frown. Now that they thought about it, something was more and more wrong. They had clearly done nothing, let alone rely on any ultra beasts. Logically speaking, there shouldn¡¯t have been so many ultra beasts! ¡°Do you think this was caused by someone else?¡± He Qi suddenly thought of the people he had met today and asked tentatively. Chapter 11 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Zhao Yu shook his head and said, ¡°That¡¯s impossible. Ultra beasts can¡¯t be controlled.¡± The moment he said that, He Qi fell silent. At that moment, Xu Shiying said, ¡°No, there¡¯s a way to control ultra beasts.¡± Hearing that, He Qi immediately looked at Xu Shiying and asked, ¡°What¡¯s the way?¡± ¡°It¡¯s written in the book that there¡¯s a kind of herb called the Soul Devouring Grass.¡± ¡°The taste of the Soul Devouring Grass attracts the ultra beasts. If you put it into a pot and boil it into soup, then the nearby ultra beasts will follow the smell and drink the soup.¡± ¡°After these ultra beasts drink the soup, they will fall into a puppet state. The first person who appears in front of them can order them to do anything. The time limit is one hour..¡± Xu Shiying recalled for a moment and said. After hearing this, Zhao Yu and Luo Qing widened their eyes. Zhao Yu said in shock, ¡°It¡¯s so powerful!¡± ¡°Yup. I happened to read about it in a book.¡± Xu Shiying said. ¡°If that¡¯s really the case, then this beast tide must be caused by someone.¡± He Qi said coldly. ¡°Are you trying to say that this beast tide is the work of Sheng Heyi?¡± Xu Shiying said with a frown. They had just encountered a team, and the captain of that team was Sheng Heyi. Although the two teams seemed to have no reaction on the surface, Sheng Heyi and He Qi were on bad terms. Therefore, it was hard not to suspect that Sheng Heyi was behind this. ¡°Who is this Sheng Heyi?¡± Zhao Yu asked. ¡°Sheng Heyi is our classmate. He and He Qi don¡¯t get along well.¡± Xu Shiying explained. Hearing this, Zhao Yu and Luo Qing both nodded, indicating that they understood. At this moment, He Qi suddenly looked to the side. He had just felt a sinister gaze looking at him from the side. If his guess wasn¡¯t wrong, it was Sheng Heyi and his team members who had just brushed past them! Seeing this, the others followed He Qi and looked over warily. Behind the tree next to them, the team that had just walked past them appeared once again. ¡°It really is him!¡± Xu Shiying said coldly. When Sheng Heyi saw that they had discovered him, he left with his team members with a sullen face. ¡°Are we going to let them off just like that?¡± Xu Shiying asked with a frown. One had to know that if He Qi let Sheng Heyi off this time, Sheng Heyi would still mobilize the ultra beasts to attack them. ¡°Of course we won¡¯t let him off so easily. We¡¯ll give him a taste of his own medicine.¡± He Qi looked in the direction in which they had left and said coldly. ¡°But the Soul Devouring Grass is very difficult to find.¡± Xu Shiying said. ¡°If he can find it, we will find it.¡± ¡°Let¡¯s go. Now let¡¯s go find the Soul Devouring Grass.¡± After He Qi said that, they set off to find the Soul Devouring Grass. The four of them walked for nearly two hours, but they still couldn¡¯t find the Soul Devouring Grass. In the end, they sat under a tree and rested. ¡°It is really hard to find!¡± Zhao Yu sighed. The four of them searched for two hours but still couldn¡¯t find it. They didn¡¯t know how Sheng Heyi found it. ¡°Why don¡¯t we stop searching? We didn¡¯t lose much. Instead, we¡¯ve become the first place in this training.¡± Luo Qing looked a little tired. He pointed at the display in his hand and said. When the others heard his words, they all looked at the display on their wrists. It showed that the four of them were currently ranked at the top. ¡°In that case, it¡¯s all thanks to the beast tide created by Sheng Heyi that we can rise to the first place.¡± ¡°Let him go for now. We still have two days before the end of the training.¡± ¡°Before training ends, we must find the Soul Devouring Grass and create a beast tide for them.¡± He Qi said. When the other three heard He Qi¡¯s words, they all nodded in agreement. After resting for more than ten minutes, they returned to their original cave. As soon as Luo Qing opened the door, a large number of ultra beasts flew out of the cave. Everyone was so frightened that they all backed off, only to see these ultra beasts flying in circles in the air. They formed a huge tornado in the air, directly charging towards He Qi and the others. Seeing this, Luo Qing immediately used his ability. An earth wall suddenly rose from the ground, directly blocking the attacks of these ultra beasts. However, the tornado didn¡¯t disappear just like that. Instead, it circled around them. Seeing this, Luo Qing used his ability to surround them with the earth wall. This tornado couldn¡¯t attack them at all. ¡°Think of a way to get them down. Otherwise, it¡¯ll be very difficult for us to attack them.¡± He Qi looked at the ultra beasts flying in the air and said. ¡°I¡¯ll give it a try first.¡± As Zhao Yu spoke, he used his ability to attack the ultra beasts in the air. Bolts of lightning struck directly at the ultra beasts. At this moment, vines stood up one by one and rose into the sky. They directly pulled all the ultra beasts down, causing a large number of them to fall to the ground. Zhao Yu¡¯s ability also annihilated a portion of the ultra beasts. In less than twenty minutes, all the ultra beasts were killed by them. The four of them walked into the cave and saw that their belongings were already in a mess. Xu Shiying frowned. She couldn¡¯t stand this dirty and messy environment, so she went up to pack up her things. Seeing this, the others also packed up their things. By the time the entire cave was restored to its original state, it was already dark. He Qi picked up a few ultra beasts from the ground outside and began to clean them up before placing them on the bonfire and roasting them. Just as He Qi was roasting the corpses of the ultra beasts, he suddenly heard a ¡°Dong, dong, dong!¡± sound. He immediately stood up vigilantly and looked at the source of the sound. It must have been attracted by the fragrance coming from the ultra beasts he had roasted. Chapter 12 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Soon, a large-sized ultra beast appeared before He Qi, but this ultra beast was only a level one mid-tier beast. He Qi immediately attacked this beast, and it immediately ran towards the bonfire. He Qi stood in front of the bonfire, blocking the ultra beast¡¯s path. Seeing this, the ultra beast lowered its head in anger, and used its head to hit He Qi. As it approached He Qi, a large cluster of flames burned around it. Immediately, the ultra beast stopped in its tracks. At this moment, He Qi¡¯s attack was still continuing. Ten minutes later, He Qi successfully killed the ultra beast. He continued to roast the meat on the bonfire. After roasting it for a few minutes, He Qi brought the roasted meat back to the cave and distributed the meat to the other three. At night, when everyone was resting. A banging sound came from the entrance of the cave, which woke up He Qi and the others. They stood up and looked at the entrance of the cave which had been sealed by Luo Qing vigilantly. Soon, the sound disappeared. It seemed that the ultra beast had left. The four of them heaved a sigh of relief. Then, they returned to their positions to rest. Early the next morning, they walked out of the cave and continued to search for the Soul Devouring Grass. There was only one more day before the training ended. They had to make a beast tide for Sheng Heyi before the training ended. The four of them walked aimlessly in the small wild area. Right at this moment, Luo Qing cried out in surprise. He pointed in the northeast direction and said, ¡°Look over there!¡± Everyone followed his hand and looked over. They saw a huge ultra beast with a basket in its mouth. There were a lot of green herbs in the basket. It walked into its nest, put the herbs away, and walked out again. ¡°What¡¯s the big deal about this?¡± Zhao Yu rolled his eyes at Luo Qing and said. ¡°What¡¯s it hiding? Why don¡¯t we go up and take a look? Maybe it¡¯s holding the Soul Devouring Grass.¡± Luo Qing suggested. Just now, this ultra beast had sized up its surroundings before walking in. When the other three heard what he said, they couldn¡¯t believe it. How could the Soul Devouring Grass that they hadn¡¯t found after searching for so long be in this ultra beast¡¯s nest? At this moment, He Qi suddenly stopped. What if this ultra beast liked to collect Soul Devouring Grass? Then what it had just brought back was very likely the Soul Devouring Grass! Then there must be a lot of Soul Devouring Grass in its nest! The more He Qi thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense. He said, ¡°Let¡¯s go in and take a look before the ultra beast comes back. There¡¯s nothing to lose.¡± After he said that, he walked over. The other three looked at each other, then followed He Qi. It didn¡¯t take long for the four of them to arrive at the nest of the ultra beast they had just seen. As far as their eyes could see, it was all green. At this moment, Xu Shiying seemed to have thought of something and said in surprise, ¡°This is the Soul Devouring Grass!¡± When He Qi heard this, a smile appeared on his face. His guess was indeed correct. ¡°There¡¯s so many of it!¡± Zhao Yu looked at the two piles of herbs in front of him and said in surprise. ¡°Hurry up and put these herbs into your backpack. It¡¯ll be bad if that ultra beast come back.¡± As He Qi spoke, he picked up the Soul Devouring Grass on the ground and put it into his backpack. The other three felt that He Qi¡¯s words made sense, so they immediately picked up the herbs and put them into their bags. Just as their backpacks were filled to the brim and they were walking out of the nest of the ultra beast¡­ The ultra beast was walking back to its nest with a basket in its mouth. It happened to bump into He Qi and the other three who were about to leave. The ultra beast took a look inside and found that more than half of the herbs it had piled up had disappeared. It immediately glared at He Qi and the rest, then it threw the basket into its nest and attacked them. Seeing this, He Qi and the other three also used their abilities to counterattack. The ultra beast slapped the ground fiercely, causing the ground to shake violently, making He Qi and the other three stagger and lost their balance. Seeing this, the ultra beast rushed towards them and stretched out its palm to attack them. Luo Qing instantly caused the soil to expand, forming an earth wall that blocked the ultra beast¡¯s attack. However, immediately after, the ultra beast slapped the earth wall with force, directly shattering it. This caused Luo Qing to instantly panic. He shouted, ¡°Scatter!¡± and dodged to the side. The other three narrowly dodged its attack. The four of them stood together and used their abilities on the ultra beast in front of them. ¡°Just what level is this ultra beast? It¡¯s so powerful!¡± Luo Qing blocked the ultra beast¡¯s attack and said. ¡°Level-one mid-tier, Furious Bear!¡± He Qi and Xu Shiying said in unison. ¡°Sh*t! Level-one mid-tier! I¡¯m still a level-one low-tier. No wonder it can smash my earth wall.¡± Luo Qing said as he defended. No one answered Luo Qing anymore, and they focused on dealing with the ultra beast in front of them. Half an hour later, they finally killed the Furious Bear. They stood where they were and rested for a few minutes, then walked forward. ¡°What are we going to do next?¡± Zhao Yu asked. ¡°Next, we¡¯ll first look for Sheng Heyi. He had so much grudge to me, so he won¡¯t be too far away from us.¡± ¡°After we find him, we¡¯ll brew the Soul Devouring Grass and attract the ultra beasts over. Then, we¡¯ll command these ultra beasts to attack Sheng Heyi and his team.¡± He Qi explained his plan. ¡°But, they can also kill all these ultra beasts like us.¡± Xu Shiying said with a frown. ¡°If I¡¯m not wrong, their abilities are still at level-one low-tier.¡± ¡°But it¡¯s hard to say for sure. There are low-tier and medium-tier ultra beasts, and more importantly, there are tons of ultra beasts!¡± He Qi said calmly. Chapter 13 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Xu Shiying listened to He Qi¡¯s words and felt that what He Qi said made snese. Besides, they didn¡¯t have He Qi¡¯s superb deployment skills, and they might not be able to think of a way to deal with the beast tide. If thing went smooth, Sheng Heyi¡¯s team would end up press the red button on the display form and seek their teacher¡¯s assistance. They would be eliminated! The four of them searched the wild area for five minutes and found Sheng Heyi and the others. As expected, they were right as He Qi said. They were around He Qi and the others. At this moment, they were sitting by the river to rest. Some of them were guarding and checking the changes in their surroundings. After finding them, He Qi¡¯s team did not go forward. Instead, they set up a shelf a little further away from Sheng Heyi¡¯s team.. They took a bowl that they found in the cave and placed it on the shelf. They lit the tree branches and began to boil it. He Qi took the right opportunity to put a few stalks of Soul Devouring Grass into the bowl. Five minutes later, the bowl was suddenly filled with a pungent smell. The four of them covered their noses and mouths and hid in a corner. Then, they saw a large number of ultra beasts running toward them. The ultra beasts didn¡¯t find the soup pungent like they did, but rather, the ultra beasts found it very fragrant. It was as if they hadn¡¯t eaten anything for a long time, and the soup was their food. A large number of ultra beasts began to scramble to drink the soup. Not long after, a bowl of soup was finished by the ultra beasts. The ultra beasts swayed, as if they were about to fall down anytime. Seeing this, He Qi knew that the Soul Devouring Grass had shown its effects, so he immediately walked in front of the group of ultra beasts. Suddenly, the ultra beasts, who were still in a daze, suddenly looked at He Qi in front of them with bright eyes. ¡°Follow me.¡± After He Qi said that, he walked in front, followed by Xu Shiying and the other two, the group of beasts were behind them. The four of them and the group of beasts came to the resting place of Sheng Heyi and the others. He Qi glanced at them and found that they were still in the same place, no different from when they had just left. He turned around, pointed at Sheng Heyi and the others, and said to the beasts, ¡°Go attack them!¡± Hearing his order, the ultra beasts immediately ran in the direction He Qi was pointing at. Seeing the ultra beasts running over, He Qi and the others hid and observed their movements in the dark. Sheng Heyi, who had been resting quietly, was suddenly woken up by a series of noises. He opened his eyes impatiently and saw a group of ultra beasts rushing toward them. The other team members were the same as him. They immediately panicked and didn¡¯t know what to do for a moment. ¡°Quickly attack them!¡± Sheng Heyi hurriedly said. Hearing his words, they remembered that they could still use their abilities to attack them. They attacked these ultra beasts, but unfortunately, the ultra beasts weren¡¯t harmed at all. Once these ultra beasts united, they protected the low-level ultra beasts. Hence, Sheng Heyi and his team¡¯s attacks couldn¡¯t cause any casualties. ¡°These ultra beasts are too powerful! Let¡¯s press the red button and ask teacher to come and save us!¡± A team member said loudly. The others were in agreement. At this moment, Sheng Heyi said, ¡°No! We have to kill all these ultra beasts. That way, we¡¯ll be the first place!¡± As he spoke, he used his ability to fiercely attack the ultra beasts. The few of them felt that what he said made sense, so they continued to use their abilities on the ultra beasts. A few minutes later, that team member shouted, ¡°I¡¯d better press the red button. It¡¯s been so long, and none of these ultra beasts have died. Compared to the first place, my life is more important.¡± After saying that, he pressed the button and waited for his teacher to come to his rescue. When the other team members heard his words, they felt that he was right. Their lives were much more important than the first place! They pressed the button one after another and waited for their teacher to come over. Only Sheng Heyi was left in the team. He was still holding on. But how could one person be a match for a group of ultra beasts? In the end, Sheng Heyi still pressed the button. He Qi and the other three, who were in the dark, walked over after seeing that they had all pressed the button. He Qi said, ¡°Stop attacking.¡± As soon as he said that, the ultra beasts, who had been attacking irascible, all stopped attacking and came behind He Qi. They stood obediently, waiting for his command. Seeing this, Sheng Heyi glared at He Qi and said angrily, ¡°It¡¯s you!¡± Hearing this, He Qi smiled and said, ¡°So what? I¡¯m just giving you a taste of your own medicine.¡± Upon hearing He Qi¡¯s words, Sheng Heyi wanted to use his ability to attack him. At this moment, Zhao Yu, who was beside He Qi, said, ¡°Those who are eliminated cannot attack.¡± As soon as these words were said, Sheng Heyi, who was about to make a move, immediately stopped. He Qi saw him withdraw his hand, looking as if he wanted to fight but couldn¡¯t. He immediately laughed out loud. ¡°I like the way you look at me when you can¡¯t get rid of me.¡± After He Qi finished speaking, Zhao Yu and the other two behind him laughed out loud. Sheng Heyi was flew into a rage. He wanted to attack He Qi without caring about anything else. ¡°Teacher is here.¡± Someone said warned, and everyone immediately looked around. As expected, they saw the figures of two teachers. After He Qi saw them, he said to Zhao Yu and the other two behind him, ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡± After saying that, they left the place, and the ultra beasts behind them also left with them. When they were far away, Luo Qing said what he had been holding in his heart all this while, ¡°Why do we have to leave? I still want to see how flustered he is.¡± Xu Shiying, who was beside him, rolled her eyes at him. ¡°Do you want teacher to see a group of ultra beasts behind us?¡± ¡°Besides, it¡¯s almost time for this group of ultra beasts.¡± As soon as Xu Shiying¡¯s words came out, Luo Qing had an epiphany. So that was how it was. No wonder they left so quickly. Chapter 14 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio He Qi glanced at Xu Shiying, his eyes filled with admiration. Whether it was the meaning in his words or his actions, she could completely understand what he meant. Xu Shiying turned her head and saw He Qi¡¯s gaze. She smiled at He Qi, then turned her head to the side. When He Qi saw her smile, a smile also appeared on his face. He turned his head and continued walking forward. The four of them walked for a few minutes before they stopped. He Qi pointed to a place in front of them and said to the ultra beasts behind him, ¡°Go attack that place.¡± The ultra beasts that heard He Qi¡¯s order immediately rushed toward the place He Qi pointed to. Seeing the group of ultra beasts walking over, the few of them immediately turned around and walked in another direction. Twenty minutes after He Qi and the others left, the ultra beasts that were attacking everywhere regained their consciousness. They were looking at each other in confusion, wondering why they were here. He Qi and the others walked in the wild area. After killing two more ultra beasts, they returned to the cave. Time passed quickly, and a day passed just like that. The training had reached its end, and the training had ended. He Qi and the others walked out of the wild area. Standing at the place where they got off the train, a teacher immediately walked up to them with a pen and paper. ¡°Are you guys from the same team?¡± Yu Qingyuan asked. ¡°What are your names? Which class are you from?¡± Yu Qingyuan saw them nodding and asked again. He Qi and the other three answered in turn, and Yu Qingyuan recorded all this information. After Yu Qingyuan registered, she raised her head and pointed to the side. They said, ¡°Go there and wait.¡± He Qi and the other three walked to where Yu Qingyuan pointed and waited for nearly an hour. Finally, all the people were gathered. The male teacher took the loudspeaker and began to announce the names of those who were eliminated. The four of them waited for a long time, and finally, he announced the names of the winners. ¡°The first place is a team of He Qi, Xu Shiying, Zhao Yu, and Luo Qing!¡± ¡°Now, come forward and collect your crystal cores!¡± After the male teacher finished speaking, He Qi and the other three slowly walked forward. They even looked disdainful. The male teacher gave them three level-two high-tier crystal cores one by one. They took them and bowed to the teacher, then returned to their original positions. The male teacher immediately frowned. Was this reward not good? Actually, it was not that the reward was not good. If they had known about this reward before entering the wild area, they would have been happy. However, ever since they took out a lot of crystal cores from the swamp, the prize was not impressive to them. When the male teacher awarded the second and third place, he finally saw the happy reaction of the students. A smile instantly appeared on his face. This was the reaction they should have! After giving them the crystal cores, the two teachers organized them to get on the bus. Sheng Heyi, who was in the queue, stared at He Qi¡¯s back fiercely. If it weren¡¯t for He Qi, he wouldn¡¯t have been eliminated so quickly! And his useless teammates. If they could hold on a little longer, they would surpass He Qi¡¯s team and take first place! If his eyes could kill, He Qi would have died thousands of times already. He Qi, who was standing in front, felt a chill behind him. He turned around and found that Sheng Heyi was staring at him. Seeing the look on Sheng Heyi¡¯s face, He Qi smiled at him. He even picked up the three crystal cores in his hand and waved them. After giving him a provocative look, he turned around and got into the bus. Just like before, he found a seat by the window and sat down. Soon, someone sat down next to him. When He Qi saw Xu Shiying sitting down, he smiled. Xu Shiying placed an eye mask on his hand. ¡°Rest now. We still have class when we get back.¡± When He Qi heard this, the smile on his face immediately collapsed. Class after the training? Shouldn¡¯t he have two days off to rest? He put on the eye mask and started to sleep. After two hours of driving, the bus finally stopped. He Qi and Xu Shiying got out of the bus and saw that the bus was indeed parked at the school. Then, they heard a wave of wails. Some students even shouted, ¡°There¡¯s still class after the training ends?¡± It instantly attracted a wave of discussion. ¡°Exactly! They should let us go back and rest!¡± ¡°Rubbish school! Why there¡¯s still class?¡± ¡°Tch! I don¡¯t care! I¡¯m leaving right now!¡± As soon as these words were said, He Qi saw that there were indeed students who had left the scene. Not long after, he heard a ¡°Bang!¡±. He then saw that the students who had originally left the scene were all captured and brought back. A few teachers grabbed their collars and brought them to the high platform. One of the teachers pointed at these people with a microphone and said, ¡°These students left the school without permission. There will be a demerit!¡± ¡°The next time someone leaves the school without permission, it won¡¯t be as simple as a demerit!¡± The teacher waved his hand and asked the teacher to take all the students away. After the teacher took all the students away, the teacher picked up the microphone again. ¡°As today is the day your training ends, the school has decided to give you a break today. However, you have to come back to class tomorrow.¡± After the director finished speaking, the students below the stage immediately burst into an uproar. ¡°What? Just today! It¡¯s already noon, what¡¯s the point!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right! It doesn¡¯t make any sense!¡± ¡°Protest! Protest! Protest!¡± The director held the microphone and said sternly, ¡°Silence!¡± In an instant, the venue returned to silence. ¡°Since there¡¯s no point in letting you go now, then there¡¯s no need to! Hurry up and go back to class now!¡± After the director said that, he left the scene, leaving only the students who were wailing. Chapter 15 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio He Qi originally thought that it would still be better to let them go home now. But now, it was canceled! He Qi returned to the classroom with a solemn face. He took out his textbook from the drawer and started listening to the teacher¡¯s teaching on the podium. Finally, the last lesson was about to end. They could finally go back and eat delicious food. The moment the bell rang, they were stopped by the teacher. ¡°Wait!¡± The teacher wrote the last stroke on the blackboard, then turned around and looked at the students who were ready to leave. The teacher put down the chalk slowly, closed the book, and looked at the students. At this moment, some students couldn¡¯t hold it in anymore and asked, ¡°Teacher, is there anything else? School has already ended.¡± All the students praised this student in their hearts. Good question! He said what they wanted to say. At this moment, the teacher on the podium revealed a smile. He said, ¡°I know that your training is very difficult.¡± ¡°That¡¯s why the school has specially given you three days off. It will start tomorrow.¡± After saying that, the teacher took his book and left the classroom. Not long after he left the classroom, he heard the sounds of exclamations and slaps on the table. Some of the students had already run out of the school. When He Qi heard the news, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he heard a loud bang and his classmates¡¯ surprised voices. He immediately picked up his bag and walked out of the classroom. Then, he walked out of the school and headed home. He thought to himself, ¡®check the ability level.¡¯ As soon as he said that, the system¡¯s voice sounded in his mind. [ Host: He Qi ] [ Attribute: wind , fire ] [ Level: wind, level-1 low-tier; fire, level-1 mid-tier. ] Seeing that his wind attribute was so low, He Qi walked home even faster. Tonight, not only was he going to level up his wind attribute, he was also going to awaken his earth attribute ability. The earth attribute ability had been in his backpack for a long time. According to the system, it was best to awaken it as soon as possible. When He Qi reached home, he heard a loud bang when he opened the door, giving him a fright. He saw Xiang Wanying and He Yi appeared on his left and right, each holding a celebration popper in their hands. The corner of He Qi¡¯s mouth twitched as he said, ¡°What are you guys doing?¡± Xiang Wanying pulled He Qi in, and He Yi closed the door behind him. ¡°We¡¯re celebrating for you!¡± Xiang Wanying smiled. ¡°Celebrating what?¡± He Qi was puzzled. ¡°To celebrate you getting first place in the training, of course!¡± As Xiang Wanying spoke, she took He Qi¡¯s bag and placed it on the sofa, pulling him to the dining table. He Qi looked at the dishes on the table and was stunned for a moment. There were all kinds of chicken, duck, fish, and meat. There was no need for such a big show. The three of them sat down. Xiang Wanying kept putting food into He Qi¡¯s bowl. The dishes in his bowl had piled up into a small hill. Twenty minutes later, he qi finally finished his meal while Xiang Wanying enthusiastically put food into his bowl and spoke. He took his backpack back to his room, locked the door, and sat on the stool. He took out the crystal core and placed it on the table. He silently chanted, ¡°Awaken earth attribute ability.¡± As soon as he finished speaking, the crystal core on the table instantly turned into a ray of light and surged into He Qi¡¯s body. He Qi endured the pain for less than a minute. After the pain was over, he took out a low-level-two wind attribute crystal core and absorbed all of it. Twenty minutes later, He Qi put down the crystal core that had already been absorbed and said in his heart, ¡®check my special ability.¡¯ After saying that, the system¡¯s voice sounded in his mind. [ Host: He Qi ] [ Attributes: wind, fire, earth. ] [ Level: wind, level-1 low-tier; fire, level-1 mid-tier; earth, level-1 low-tier ] Looking at the level of his attributes, He Qi was quite satisfied. The only thing he was a little puzzled about was whether he could collect other things. Could he collect things other than the corpses of exotic beasts? Or could this system collect things from corpses? Whether it was exotic beasts or humans, as long as it was corpses, he could collect them? He would try it tomorrow! After making up his mind, He Qi took his clothes and went to wash up. At noon the next day, He Qi woke up, washed up, and left his room. He searched around but couldn¡¯t find Xiang Wanying and He Yi. They should have gone to work. By the way, he still didn¡¯t know what his parents did for a living. He had to get to know them properly when he had time! As he thought about it, his stomach made a series of rumbling sounds. He Qi rubbed his stomach and walked to the dining table to sit down. He ate the food that Xiang Wanying left for him. After eating and drinking his fill, He Qi took his backpack and went out. He Qi walked on the street towards the southwest. But what he didn¡¯t notice was that not far behind him, a person was following him furtively. He walked for half an hour and finally arrived at his destination ¡ª Cheng An Ridge. Since the invasion of ultra beast, this place had been abandoned for a long time. At first, some people would throw the bodies here, but as time went on, more and more bodies would be thrown here. Every day, many corpses would be thrown here, all of them were thrown here because their families couldn¡¯t afford the land to bury them. More and more corpses piled up here, but no one came to deal with them. Now, this place had become a mass grave. He Qi covered his nose and walked in, looking for the corpses that had just been moved in today. The person behind him frowned and followed him. He did not know what He Qi was doing here, but today he wanted He Qi to come in and walk out! Just as He Qi was looking for the body that had just been brought in, two people carrying a body walked in from the door. Chapter 16 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio They found an empty spot and left after putting down the corpse. After He Qi saw it, he immediately came to the corpse that had just been moved. The people who had been following him carefully hid in the dark and watched. He Qi looked at the corpse and thought to himself, ¡°Collect it.¡± As soon as he finished speaking, the system¡¯s voice sounded. [ Collect successful! ] [ Acquired high-tier fire attribute skill book: Skyfire Meteor. ] He didn¡¯t expect it to really be able to absorb the things on the corpse! As the system¡¯s voice disappeared, a book suddenly appeared in He Qi¡¯s hand. He lowered his head to take a look. It was the high-tier fire attribute skill book that the system had mentioned. After learning the skills in the book, his ability would be more powerful. Moreover, this was a high-tier skill book. The more familiar he was with the skill, the more powerful his ability¡¯s damage would be! Looking at his ordinary clothes, this person actually had a high-tier skill book on him! Could it be that this skill book had an unusual origin? Whatever, this was a high-tier skill book! Who wouldn¡¯t be jealous if they saw it! He Qi put the skill book into his backpack in satisfaction and looked at the corpse again. [ The target has no resources, nothing to collect! ] He Qi moved his gaze away. He had achieved his purpose of coming here today. He had confirmed that this system could only collect resources from the corpse. As for other functions, he could only slowly explore them in the future. With this thought in mind, he lifted his feet and walked out of Cheng An Ridge. The people behind him saw this and followed him. He Qi stood outside and took a deep breath. Then, he walked in the direction he came from. He wanted to go home as soon as possible. He wanted to learn the skills in the skill book to make his strength stronger! Seeing that there weren¡¯t many people around, the people behind him attacked He Qi. He Qi, who was walking in front, suddenly felt a force attacking him from behind. Turning around, he saw someone using his ability on him. He Qi hurriedly dodged and used his ability on that person. After all, there wasn¡¯t anyone here. Even if he killed that person, as long as he didn¡¯t say anything, no one would know that he was the one who killed that person! With that thought in mind, his ability became more and more ruthless. For a moment, He Qi used three abilities to attack him. The ground started to shake violently, and the wind made the fire grow stronger and stronger. The man in front of him was staggering. He couldn¡¯t even stand properly, let alone attack He Qi. At that moment, the voice of the man in front of him rang out, ¡°He Qi!¡± His tone was filled with anger, and He Qi could tell who he was from his voice. ¡°Sheng Heyi, you¡¯ve caused trouble for me time and time again. This time, I won¡¯t let you off so easily!¡± As he spoke, the attack on him grew faster and faster. Even when the fire surrounded him and burned his entire body, He Qi didn¡¯t take back his special ability. After He Qi saw that his ability had killed him, He Qi took back his ability. He walked to his corpse and said in his heart, ¡°Take it.¡± [ This target doesn¡¯t have any resources, nothing to collect! ] Hearing the system¡¯s words, He Qi sneered. Without any power, Sheng Heyi still dared to come to deal with him? He was simply courting death! After glancing at his corpse, He Qi turned around and left. After today, his family would investigate his death. He had to quickly increase his strength! Half an hour later, He Qi returned to his room and took out the high-tier skill book to read. After He Qi returned home, in the land of Cheng An Ridge. The corpse that He Qi encountered suddenly sat up. He sat on the ground and panted heavily. Then, he stood up and walked outside. As he walked, he felt around his body. He stopped and searched his entire body, but he could not find anything. The skill book was gone. ¡°Strange, I clearly put it here. Why did it suddenly disappear?¡± he muttered. ¡°Could it be that they chased after me and took it back?¡± The person suddenly stopped and said with a frown. ¡°No! I have to go again!¡± With that, he quickly walked out of Cheng An Ridge. At night, in a luxurious house, a woman was walking to and fro in front of the sofa. At this time, the middle-aged man on the sofa sighed and said, ¡°Don¡¯t walk anymore. You¡¯re making me dizzy.¡± When the woman heard that, she stopped and looked at the man on the sofa. ¡°You don¡¯t care about your son at all. He hasn¡¯t come home yet. He must be in some kind of danger!¡± When he heard this, the man pulled the woman over and let her sit on the sofa. ¡°He has ability. What kind of danger could he be in? Don¡¯t worry. He¡¯s already so big. Nothing bad will happen to him.¡± The woman shook off his hand and turned to look at him. She said anxiously, ¡°My eyelids are twitching today. Something bad must have happened. You¡¯d better send someone to look for him.¡± The man sighed when he heard the woman¡¯s words and replied, ¡°Okay, okay, okay. I¡¯ll send someone to look for him.¡± After he finished speaking, he picked up his phone and dialed a subordinate¡¯s number. ¡°Immediately bring someone to look for my son¡¯s whereabouts!¡± He ordered in a deep voice. When he heard the ¡°Yes¡± on the other end of the phone, he hung up. At this moment, he looked at the woman beside him and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. We¡¯ll find him very soon.¡± The woman did not answer him. The bad premonition in her heart grew stronger as time passed. An hour later, the man¡¯s cell phone rang. He quickly picked up the call and put the cell phone to his ear. ¡°Have you found him?¡± The person on the other end of the phone took a deep breath and told him the news. ¡°I have found him. He is already¡­ already dead in Cheng An Ridge.¡± After he said this sentence, he wouldn¡¯t dare to breath. Chapter 17 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°What did you say?¡± The man asked loudly. The person on the other end of the phone gulped, closed his eyes and repeated the words. ¡°Bring him back!¡± The man hung up the phone after shouting. He turned around and saw that the woman on the sofa was already crying. At this moment, he was very frustrated. Half an hour later, there was a charred corpse lying on the ground in front of him. Behind the corpse stood a bunch of bodyguards dressed in black. Although this corpse was charred, his face was only slightly damaged. One could tell that this was their son. At this moment, the woman was hugging the charred corpse and crying. The man¡¯s face was gloomy as he said coldly to the bodyguards, ¡°Go and find the killer!¡± This was his only son, he had to find out who killed him! He had to return it a hundred times over! The bodyguards who heard the order went out without a word and began to investigate the matter. ¡ª At the same time, He Qi finished reading the skill book and was about to try using it. He was shocked by the knock on the door. He walked over and pulled the door open. It was Xiang Wanying. ¡°It¡¯s time to eat.¡± she said. He Qi nodded and followed Xiang Wanying to the dining table. Just as He Qi was eating quietly, he heard Xiang Wanying¡¯s voice. ¡°I heard that the son of the Sheng family is dead. Is that true?¡± Xiang Wanying looked at He Yi and asked. Hearing this, He Qi¡¯s hand paused. He didn¡¯t know if the son of the Sheng family she mentioned was the Sheng Heyi. ¡°It¡¯s true. They¡¯ve already started investigating.¡± He Yi said. ¡°I don¡¯t know who dared to kill his son.¡± Xiang Wanying said. At this moment, He Qi, who had been eating silently, asked, ¡°What¡¯s his son¡¯s name?¡± Xiang Wanying turned her head to look at him. She thought for a moment and said, ¡°I think his name is Sheng Heyi. Why? Do you know him?¡± He Qi nodded and said, ¡°I¡¯m not very familiar with him. I¡¯m full.¡± After saying that, He Qi stood up and walked back to his room. He didn¡¯t tell them that he had killed Sheng Heyi himself, for fear of bringing trouble to them. It seemed that he had to make the most of his time to upgrade his ability. He wanted to upgrade his ability to level-3 mid-tier before they found out about him. With that thought in mind, he took out a few level-2 high-tier crystal cores and began to absorb them. After absorbing the crystal cores, he thought to himself, ¡®check the level of my ability.¡¯ [ Host: He Qi ] [ Attributes: wind, fire, earth ] [ Level: wind, level-1 high-tier; fire, level 1, high-tier; earth, level-1 mid-tier ] Seeing that each of his attributes had increased by a level, He Qi¡¯s lips curled up. Tomorrow, he was going to test out the power of the skills he had learned. He took his clothes and walked into the bathroom. After washing up, he lay on the bed. In the living room. Xiang Wanying and He Yi were sitting on the sofa when He Yi¡¯s phone rang. He took the phone, answered the call, and put it to his ear. ¡°Did you take it out?¡± He Yi asked. The person on the other end of the phone was silent for a while before saying, ¡°I did take it out, but it¡¯s gone again. I went back to look for it again, but I couldn¡¯t find it.¡± When He Yi heard this, his expression did not change. ¡°Then we¡¯ll look again.¡± The person on the other end of the line replied, ¡°Yes!¡± Then, He Yi hung up the phone. Xiang Wanying, who was beside him, asked at this moment, ¡°How is it? Has he found it?¡± He Yi shook his head and said, ¡°He found it, but it¡¯s gone again.¡± Xiang Wanying sighed and said, ¡°Then we can only start all over again.¡± He Yi patted her on the back and said, ¡°We¡¯ll find it.¡± Xiang Wanying replied sullenly, ¡°Okay.¡± The next morning, He Qi went out of his room and did not see his parents. He muttered, ¡°Why are they gone to work so early?¡± As he spoke, he walked to the dining table, finished his meal, put on his backpack, and went out. After walking for twenty minutes, he stood in front of the Red Star Alliance¡¯s door. The Red Star Alliance was the largest alliance clubhouse in the entire city. Inside, you could issue missions and let the hunting group complete the missions for you. You had to pay the corresponding fees for the hunting group. The fees had to be no less than 100,000 star dollars. You could also form the hunting group and accept the missions from the employer. Along with the difficulty of the missions, the price would also increase. Moreover, the alliance would not charge any handling fees! Of course, the Red Star Alliance would not only have these two businesses. There was also a very large venue called the practice area. The practice area would also be divided into several small areas. One could enter the venue according to the level of their abilities. This venue was just like the wild area that He Qi had been to. Today, he came to the Red Star Alliance to test the power of his ability. As soon as he walked into the Red Star Alliance, someone came to welcome him. The person who welcomed him asked, ¡°Customer, are you going to issue a mission? Please follow me.¡± As he spoke, the person led He Qi to the mission area. ¡°Wait, I¡¯m not going to the mission area. I¡¯m going to the practice area.¡± He Qi stopped and said to the person who led the way. Hearing this, the person leading the way paused for a moment. He glanced at He Qi and then led him to the practice area. This person looked like he was here to issue a mission, which was why he was mistaken. Two minutes later, the person led He Qi to the practice area and left. He Qi looked at the door, which showed his level. He walked to the first level door, pushed the door open and walked in. The scene here was like the real wild area. But this wasn¡¯t a wild area after all. There were many places that were inferior to a wild area. He Qi walked in. At this time, a level one high-level ultra beast suddenly rushed out. After it saw He Qi, it attacked He Qi. Chapter 18 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio He Qi quickly reacted and dodged its attack, not forgetting to use his ability to attack it. Right at this moment, He Qi¡¯s palms were facing upwards, and flames were dancing in his palms. He threw the two balls of flames into the air, and the two small balls of flames instantly became incomparably huge. Then, they fell from the air and smashed onto the body of the ultra beast. Before all the fire in the air had fallen, the ultra beast had already landed on the ground. He Qi was stunned for a moment. He didn¡¯t expect the skill of the Skyfire Meteor to be so powerful! If that was the case, then he could totally deal with a level-2 low-tier ultra beast! A smile appeared on his face as he continued to walk inside. Whenever he encountered a ultra beast, he would use his skill. The feeling of having an ability was very satisfying. He turned around and walked out the practice area. The moment he walked out, he saw that the sky was already a little dark. He lifted his feet and was about to walk out of the alliance. ¡ª At the same time He Qi entered the practice area, in a luxurious house. At this moment, the middle-aged man sat on the sofa with a sullen face, listening to the reports of his subordinates. ¡°We went to ask young master¡¯s classmates. Young master really hates ordinary people who don¡¯t have abilities. After knowing that there was a person in his class who didn¡¯t have any aptitude, he used his ability on him ¡°This person¡¯s name is He Qi. Two days later, He Qi took revenge on young master and trapped young master in the fire. In the subsequent trials, young master used the Soul Devouring Grass to control a large number of ultra beasts to attack He Qi. After He Qi found out about it, he used the same method to take revenge.¡± A subordinate took He Qi¡¯s information and handed it to the man. The man flipped through the information he found, and the more he read, more sullen his face became. ¡°Pa!¡± He closed the information and said coldly, ¡°He is the murderer of my son! No matter what method you use, bring him here!¡± The subordinates who received the order all replied, ¡°Yes!¡± After saying that, the group walked out. They first investigated He Qi¡¯s whereabouts, and then waited for He Qi in front of the Red Star Alliance¡¯s gate. When they saw He Qi walk out, they immediately stepped forward and blocked He Qi¡¯s way. He Qi frowned and walked to the side, but this group of people blocked his way. ¡°Our master invites you to have a chat.¡± Just as He Qi was about to use his ability, the leader of this group of people said. ¡°Who¡¯s your master? I don¡¯t know him.¡± He Qi frowned and asked. That person said, ¡°Our master¡¯s name is Sheng Qing. Compared to Sheng, you¡¯re very familiar with this surname.¡± ¡°If I don¡¯t go, what can you do to me?¡± He Qi sneered and said. ¡°Then we¡¯ll be blamed for being impolite!¡± After hearing He Qi¡¯s words, that person¡¯s face turned cold as he said coldly. He waved his hand behind him, and dozens of black-clothed bodyguards walked out and directly surrounded He Qi. They directly tied He Qi up. Seeing that they were serious, He Qi immediately attacked them with his power. One man couldn¡¯t defeat more than a dozen people. In the end, He Qi was taken away by them. Not long after they left, a ragged beggar with a broken bowl in his hand came to the place where He Qi stood. He looked at the backs of the people leaving, took out his cell phone, and made a call. After he told the person on the other end of the phone what he had seen, he put away his phone and followed them. They carried He Qi to a dilapidated house. They let go of He Qi and guarded every corner of the house. At this moment, the door was opened. A middle-aged man with a cigar in his mouth walked over with a woman in a cheongsam. They came before He Qi and looked down at him. ¡°You¡¯re the one who killed my son?¡± Sheng Qing said coldly. Although this was a question, his tone was full of certainty. When He Qi heard what he said, he sneered and said, ¡°So what? He¡¯s the one who provoked me time after time.¡± ¡°What? A commoner could not use his own force to protect himself?¡± Hearing He Qi¡¯s words, the man immediately raised his foot and kicked him angrily. Just as he was about to kick him, his foot was suddenly set on fire, and the ground began to shake. The sudden tremor caused the Sheng Qing to fall to the ground. At this time, the woman next to him attacked He Qi. When the Sheng Qing was standing properly, his eyes were filled with killing intent as he attacked He Qi. He even shouted, ¡°I want you to die with my son!¡± The two of them continued to attack He Qi. At first, He Qi could deal with women, but with Sheng Qing, he couldn¡¯t. He used Skyfire Meteor twice, but it only caused slight damage to them. At this moment, a loud sound came from the door. More than twenty ragged beggars barged in. They attacked the Sheng Qing and his wife without saying a word. Their moves became more and more vicious. Seeing this, the bodyguards surrounding them quickly went up to protect them. These beggars even attacked them. After more than twenty beggars killed all these people, they stopped. When they saw that these people were all dead, they immediately ran out. They came and went in a hurry. He Qi stood on the spot with a dumbfounded look. When he came back to his senses, he saw a group of people lying on the ground. Who were these people? Could it be the enemies of the Sheng family? Forget it. This could be considered as saving him. If he met these people again, he would definitely repay them properly! He Qi walked to the front of Sheng Qing and muttered, ¡°Collect!¡± The Sheng family was very rich! He did not collect anything from Sheng Qing. He did not believe that he could not collect anything from Saint Qing as well! [ Collection successful! ] [ Acquired a treasure map, high-level [ Devil¡¯s Steps ] skill book. ] A book and a thick piece of paper suddenly appeared in He Qi¡¯s hand. Chapter 19 Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio He Qi looked at the treasure map. There were a few dots on it, and on each of the dots, there was a special note about what treasure was hidden. He took the treasure map and put away the two items with a smile. He looked through all the corpses. He received three level-three high-tier crystal cores and a Wind Blade skill book. He Qi put everything into his backpack and walked out. He walked on the street, heading home. When he got home, he saw the door was open. He quickly walked in and saw Xiang Wanying and He Yi sitting on the sofa, looking at the door.. He asked, ¡°What happened? Why didn¡¯t you close the door?¡± When they saw He Qi, they were relieved. ¡°Nothing happened. I opened the door to let in some fresh air.¡± Xiang Wanying replied. She walked to He Qi¡¯s side and took the bag he was carrying. She asked nonchalantly, ¡°Where did you go to play today?¡± He Qi replied, ¡°I went to the Red Star Alliance to practice my newly acquired skills.¡± Xiang Wanying was stunned when she heard this. She immediately asked in puzzlement, ¡°What skills?¡± He Qi thought for a moment and decided to tell them about it. The three members of the Sheng family were all dead, so there was nothing to be afraid of now. He pulled Xiang Wanying to the sofa and sat down. He stood in front of them. He said solemnly, ¡°Yesterday, I happened to get a skill book. When I came back, I saw Sheng Heyi.¡± ¡°He kept coming to provoke me, so I killed him when there was no one there.¡± ¡°Today, when I was about to come back, I met people sent by Sheng Qing They captured me in a dilapidated house and wanted to avenge their son. Fortunately, a group of good people appeared at this time, and they saved me.¡± He Qi simply told them what had happened. Xiang Wanying and He Yi were both stunned. They were extremely shocked! They never thought that the person who killed Sheng Heyi was He Qi! Xiang Wanying came back to her senses and said coldly, ¡°He really deserve to die!¡± He Yi patted her back and said, ¡°They are already dead. Don¡¯t be angry over these dead people. Let¡¯s go eat.¡± As he said that, he pulled Xiang Wanying and walked to the dining table. What He Qi didn¡¯t notice was that a hint of viciousness flashed in He Yi¡¯s eyes. After finishing his meal, He Qi returned to his room and took out the [ Devil¡¯s Step ] skill book and the treasure map. He had only taken a quick glance at the treasure map in that room and hadn¡¯t looked at it in detail. Now, he could take a good look at this treasure map. This was a treasure map of a wild area. On the treasure map, there were five places where there were treasures. On top of that, it was written the level and attributes of the ultra beasts that looked after the treasures. It was very detailed. It would take a lot of time to go to the wild area. He would have to go to school the next day, and he would only be able to go there during the weekend or during the holidays. Moreover, he had to hurry, or else the treasure would be found by others. With this thought in mind, he put away the treasure map. He picked up the Devil¡¯s Step skill book and read it, learning it as he read. Half an hour later, he closed the book and began to walk on Devil¡¯s Steps in the room. With this Devil¡¯s Steps, he walked even faster than usual! He stopped and with a satisfied smile on his face, he took his clothes into the bathroom. After washing up, he went to bed and began to sleep. In the living room. Xiang Wanying said coldly, ¡°It¡¯s time for the Sheng family to be destroyed!¡± He Yi replied, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. Tonight, their clan will disappear from this world.¡± In the middle of the night. In a residence, dozens of masked people jumped in from the window. Each person was in charge of a room. They rushed in and killed all the people who were sleeping soundly. Then, they quickly went to the next room. The people who were sleeping soundly never woke up After they finished dealing with the people in this residence, they took out their phones and sent a message to someone. ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡± One of them said and left the house. The people behind him also left. The next morning, He Qi walked out of his room. He had no idea what happened last night. After breakfast, he put on his bag and walked out of the house. On the street, he could always hear some people whispering something. ¡°Did you hear? It¡¯s so scary! Everyone in the house died overnight!¡± ¡°What? Is this true?¡± ¡°Of course! When I went out to buy groceries today, I saw someone die inside the window. I walked in and found everyone inside dead!!¡± ¡°Oh my God! It¡¯s too scary! I¡¯m afraid They offended some big shots!¡± He Qi listened to their conversation and was confused. He didn¡¯t know which family had offended some big shot and were killed! He Qi came to the school, walked to the classroom, and returned to his seat. At this time, a few girls walked in from the door. ¡°Have you heard? The people in that house were killed by one person!¡± ¡°What? Do you understand? Those people were clearly killed by more than ten people at night!¡± ¡°Not only that, I heard from my cousin who lives in the south of the city that they also have a family was murdered, and they all have the same surname!¡± ¡°Oh my God! Could it be that the entire clan has been killed?¡± Hearing the topic of their discussion, which was the same as what he heard this morning, He Qi could not help but feel curious. Who had caused such a big trouble? At this moment, Xu Shiying walked over. She knocked on He Qi¡¯s table and asked, ¡°Are you that curious?¡± He Qi was stunned for a moment and said, ¡°Aren¡¯t you curious?¡± Xu Shiying shook her head and said, ¡°I¡¯m not curious. I already know everything.¡± As soon as she said this, He Qi looked at her with bright eyes. ¡°Tell me, what exactly is going on? Is it really the same as what they said?¡± Xu Shiying nodded and shook her head again, saying, ¡°The same but different.¡± Chapter 20 - Treasure Hunting Squad. Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio ¡°Do you know the surname of this family?¡± Xu Shiying said mysteriously. After seeing He Qi shook his head, she continued, ¡°This family¡¯s surname is Sheng! All the members of the Sheng family died in their beds overnight.¡± ¡°Not only that, all those who were related to the Sheng family died.¡± Hearing what she said, He Qi¡¯s eyes widened. This was simply too unbelievable! ¡°It¡¯s said that the Sheng Qing discovered the murderer of their son, so they sent people to capture him and make him pay the price.¡± ¡°However, this person didn¡¯t die. Instead, the Shen Qing and his wife and a group of bodyguards died.¡± ¡°That night, members of the Sheng family all died.¡± Xu Shiying told him all the information she knew.. After hearing the news, He Qi was shocked. He didn¡¯t expect that the development of this matter had something to do with him. ¡°How did you know?¡± At this time, He Qi came back to his senses and asked Xu Shiying. Outsiders didn¡¯t know about what she said. Moreover, no one knew about the death of Sheng Heyi and the group of people! Then how did she know? ¡°I. . . I only found out because I heard about it!¡± Xu Shiying¡¯s tone was filled with pride. She was scared to death! She almost spilled the beans about her secret intelligence network! She had spent a lot of effort to build this secret intelligence network! Every day, someone would tell her about the major events that happened in the city. Heard about it? No one knew about these two things. Where did she hear about it? Just as He Qi was about to ask more questions, a voice interrupted him. ¡°Class is starting! Quickly return to your seats!¡± The teacher walked into the classroom and shouted. Everyone immediately returned to their seats when they heard the voice. He Qi swallowed what he wanted to say. So be it. She didn¡¯t know that this matter had anything to do with him anyway. He took out a book and listened carefully to the teacher¡¯s teaching on the use of abilities. After school, He Qi came to Xu Shiying. Xu Shiying thought that he wanted to ask her how she knew about this matter, so she couldn¡¯t help but step back. ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± She asked in panic. ¡°Are you free this weekend?¡± He Qi asked. Hearing this, Xu Shiying heaved a sigh of relief in her heart and immediately replied, ¡°Yes, why?¡± ¡°If you have time, let¡¯s go to the wild area for the weekend.¡± He Qi said. Hearing his words, Xu Shiying was instantly puzzled. She did not know why he still wanted to go to the wild area. This was not a training. The dangers in the wild area could be seen everywhere! ¡°Why did you suddenly want to go to the wild area?¡± she asked. ¡°You¡¯ll know once you go there.¡± ¡°Let¡¯s go and call Zhao Yu and the others.¡± He Qi did not say it out loud. Instead, he walked out of the classroom and found Zhao Yu and Luo Qing¡¯s classroom. He told them about the trip to the wild area over the weekend and even asked if they were free over the weekend to go together. They were very shocked and did not understand why He Qi would do that. ¡°Why are we still going to the wild area?¡± Luo Qing asked in confusion. ¡°Yesterday, I happened to get a treasure map from someone. The location of the treasure is all over the wild area.¡± He Qi saw that they were so curious and did not explain in detail. He simplified the matter and told them. As he spoke, he took out the treasure map from his bag and showed it to them. They took the treasure map and looked at it. They were very shocked. The markings on it were very detailed. ¡°Is this all real? Could it have been taken away by someone?¡± Zhao Yu asked in surprise. ¡°It shouldn¡¯t be. Since this treasure map is so detailed, it proves that he has been to all these places before. However, all of them failed, which is why it was specially marked.¡± He Qi analyzed. Everyone listened to his analysis and felt that what he said made sense. ¡°But the four of us are going to the wild area just like that? It¡¯s very dangerous there.¡± Zhao Yu said worriedly. The training area had been dealt with by the storm team before, which was why there weren¡¯t any high-level ultra beasts. This time, no one would help them! Most of the ultra beasts were at a higher level than them! Hearing Zhao Yu¡¯s words, the other three fell silent. It was indeed as he had said. It was very dangerous there. If they weren¡¯t careful, they might lose their lives in the wild area. At that moment, He Qi made a suggestion. ¡°This week, we¡¯ll upgrade our abilities to level-two mid-tier. Then, we¡¯ll set off for the wild area this weekend. If we encounter any ultra beasts that are higher in level than us, we¡¯ll brew the Soul Devouring Grass.¡± ¡°Didn¡¯t we bring back a lot of Soul Devouring Grass during the last training? We can even control these ultra beasts to help us get these treasures.¡± As soon as he said that, the other three¡¯s eyes lit up. He Qi was right. They could use the Soul Devouring Grass to control these ultra beasts! ¡°It¡¯s a deal then. Take these crystal cores back and improve your abilities as soon as possible.¡± Seeing their reactions, He Qi said. He took out a few crystal cores from his bag and placed them on the table, letting them choose the crystal cores that matched their attributes. After seeing that they had all chosen, He Qi walked out of the classroom and left the school. After the other three put away the crystal cores, they also left the school. When He Qi returned home, he found that his parents had already prepared the dishes and were waiting for him at the dining table. When he saw that He Qi had returned, he said softly to Xiang Wanying, ¡°You¡¯re back. Come over and eat.¡± Hearing her voice, He Qi put his bag down and walked over. Ten minutes later, He Qi put down his chopsticks, stood up, washed the dishes, and returned to his room with his bag. In the room, he took out his fire attribute crystal core and began to absorb the energy inside. Chapter 21 - Coming to the Wild Area Again Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After He Qi finished absorbing the energy in the crystal core, he muttered, ¡°Check the ability level.¡± [ Host: He Qi ] [ Ability attribute: fire, wind, earth. ] [ Ability level: fire, level 2 low-tier; wind, level 1 high-tier; earth, level 1 mid-tier. ] Seeing that his fire attribute had been upgraded to level 2, He Qi was quite satisfied. With that, the attack power of his skills became stronger. As the level of his ability increased, the attack power of the skills he learned would also increase. With that, it wouldn¡¯t be a problem for him to battle with a level 2 mid-tier ultra beast! With a smile on his face, He Qi took his clothes and walked into the bathroom. After washing up, he went to bed to rest.. ¡­ Time flew by. In the blink of an eye, it was Friday. The other three had leveled up significantly. He Qi¡¯s three attributes had leveled up to level 2 high-tier as well. Tomorrow, they would set off for the wild zone. After school, the four of them were walking home. ¡°How can we go there without a car?¡± At this moment, Luo Qing asked a very crucial question. The three of them froze on the spot. Up until now, they had indeed not thought of how to get there. This was great. They had discussed for so long, and they gave up just like that? ¡°I have an idea! We can meet outside the city tomorrow!¡± Xu Shiying said at this moment. ¡°That¡¯s fine. It¡¯s settled then. We¡¯ll meet outside the city tomorrow.¡± He Qi looked at Xu Shiying and said. Xu Shiying and He Qi looked at each other and quickly moved their eyes away. Zhao Yu and Luo Qing didn¡¯t notice their actions at all. They replied, ¡°Okay!¡± Then, the four of them returned to their own homes and packed up the things they needed to bring. The most important thing was the Soul Devouring Grass. This was an useful magical item in the wild area! No matter how high-level the ultra beasts were, they would be attracted by the smell of the Soul Devouring Grass. As long as they drank a little of it, they would lose their minds. When He Qi returned home, he hesitated for a moment at the dinner table. In the end, he told his parents that he was going to the wild area the next day. In case his parents would be worried when they found out, he might as well tell them now. Xiang Wanying and He Yi were both stunned when they heard it. They couldn¡¯t believe what they had heard. ¡°You said you¡¯re going to the wild area?¡± Xiang Wanying said in shock. He Qi nodded calmly and said, ¡°I know the wild area is very dangerous, but we have many Soul Devouring Grasses.¡± Xiang Wanying frowned when she heard He Qi¡¯s words. She knew the effect of Soul Devouring Grass on ultra beasts, but no matter how many they had, they would run out eventually of it. The ultra beasts in the wild area weren¡¯t as easy to deal with as they had thought. ¡°No! I don¡¯t agree with you going to the wild area.¡± Xiang Wanying said firmly, while He Yi nodded in agreement with her words. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. My ability has already been upgraded to level 2 high-tier.¡± He Qi tried to persuade them. ¡°Give up on that idea. I won¡¯t let you go to the wild area.¡± After Xiang Wanying finished speaking, she stood up with a cold face and returned to her room. The two of them finally parted on bad terms. He Qi sighed. He tidied up the table and returned to his room. The next morning, when he was about to open the door and go out, he found that the door could not be opened no matter how hard he tried. He realized that Xiang Wanying had locked the door in order to stop him from going to the wild area. He then opened the window and looked down. It wasn¡¯t high. So he packed his things, went out of the window, and climbed down the water pipe. A few minutes later, He Qi jumped to the ground, patted the dust off his hands and walked out of the city. When he arrived outside the city, he found that everyone was here except for him. He quickened his pace and walked to their side. ¡°Then why are you so late?¡± Xu Shiying asked. ¡°Don¡¯t say anymore. My family didn¡¯t let me go. They locked my door. I sneaked out.¡± He Qi sighed and replied. ¡°You even told your family that you were going to the wild area? Isn¡¯t that the same as saying that you¡¯re going to die?¡± Xu Shiying laughed and said. ¡°None of you told your family?¡± He Qi asked. Seeing them shake their heads, He Qi said regretfully, ¡°If I had known, I wouldn¡¯t have said anything.¡± ¡°Let¡¯s not talk about this anymore. Where¡¯s the car?¡± After He Qi said that, he looked around and asked when he didn¡¯t see any car. Xu Shiying took out her phone and tapped a few times. In less than a minute, a car stopped in front of them. He Qi, Zhao Yu, and Luo Qing were all shocked. How could the car arrive so quickly? ¡°Get in.¡± Xu Shiying opened the door and sat in the car. The other three also got in the car. When they got in the car, the driver stepped on the accelerator. Before they could sit properly, they fell forward and hit their heads. He Qi touched his forehead and quickly sat down. Zhao Yu and Luo Qing also sat down. The original one-hour drive was shortened by half an hour by the driver¡¯s excellent driving skill. After they got off the car, they headed straight for the wild area. He Qi held the treasure map and followed the route drawn on it. Zhao Yu and the other two followed behind him. At this moment, an ultra beast rushed out from beside them. They were shocked when they saw ultra beast rushing over. It was a level 3 mid-tier Berserk Bear. They didn¡¯t expect to encounter such a powerful ultra beast as soon as they entered! Without any hesitation, they used their abilities to attack the bear that was charging at them. They saw that the bear had its back facing them, using its thick back to block their attacks. At this moment, two huge balls of flames suddenly appeared in the sky. The two balls of flames then transformed into countless small flames. They fell from the sky and smashed towards the Berserk Bear. Chapter 22 - Found the First Treasure Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Berserk Bear was stunned for a moment, then it attacked the falling flames. Just as some of the flames were about to land on its body, a faint blue barrier with lightning appeared around it. The flames landed on the barrier, but didn¡¯t hit the bear ¡°Zhao Yu, see if you can break this barrier.¡± He Qi said to Zhao Yu. This ultra beast had the same lightning attribute as Zhao Yu, so not only could Zhao Yu break the barrier, but he could also absorb it. By converting it into his own power, he could inflict a huge damage on the ultra beast. Hearing He Qi¡¯s words, Zhao Yu used his ability to attack the barrier protecting the bear. As expected, the barrier shattered under Zhao Yu¡¯s attack. The flames that hadn¡¯t finished falling instantly smashed onto the bear¡¯s body.. Before the bear could react, it fell to the ground with its eyes wide open. Seeing the bear fell to the ground, they all heaved a sigh of relief. However, they were very shocked by the skill He Qi had used just now. ¡°That skill just now was too powerful!¡± Luo Qing said happily. ¡°I wish I had a skill too!¡± Zhao Yu sighed. ¡°Stop daydreaming. Skill books aren¡¯t that easy to obtain!¡± Xu Shiying glanced at Zhao Yu and said. It was true that skill books weren¡¯t that easy to obtain, but it was something that every one of them wanted! Meanwhile, He Qi came before the carcass of the bear. Looking at the carcass, he thought to himself, ¡°Collect!¡± [ Collection successful! ] [ Level 3 mid-tier lightning attribute ability obtained. ] [ Do you wish to awaken? ] He Qi said in his heart, ¡°Awaken!¡± A faint blue light instantly surged into He Qi¡¯s body. He Qi frowned and endured the pain for more than ten seconds. When the pain disappeared, he returned to his normal state. Everything happened in an instant, and no one noticed He Qi¡¯s change. ¡°Let¡¯s go. What¡¯s so good about this corpse?¡± Luo Qing said casually. He Qi looked at Luo Qing and the other two who had unknowingly arrived beside him. He replied, ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡± He then continued to lead them forward. The four of them followed the path on the map for 20 minutes before finally arriving at the location where the first treasure was stored. There was a waterfall here. Beside the waterfall was a very large cave. Outside the cave, there was a ultra beast resting. They stopped not far from the cave and looked at the ultra beast outside the cave. It was a level 2 mid-tier Agile Wolf. ¡°There is definitely more than one wolf. There must be a pack of wolves inside.¡± He Qi looked at the ultra beast sleeping outside the cave and said firmly. ¡°What method should we use to lure them all away?¡± Zhao Yu asked. ¡°They¡¯re guarding at the treasure. I¡¯m afraid they won¡¯t leave no matter what.¡± Xu Shiying said. She was right. These ultra beasts were guarding the treasure. No matter what they did, they wouldn¡¯t attract all the ultra beasts out of the cave. Just as they were racking their brains to think of a way, the wolf that was sleeping soundly suddenly stood up. It barked twice in front of them, and then a large group of wolves walked out. Their eyes filled with rage as they looked at another group of people in front of them. Seeing this, He Qi and the others were delighted. They felt that this was a good opportunity! They saw a person opposing the wolf pack suddenly launch an attack. The other people standing behind him followed closely behind. The wolves rushed up one after another, attacking the group with their sharp claws. ¡°I¡¯ll go scout first!¡± Just as they were fighting intensely, He Qi said. Without waiting for the three of them to stop him, He Qi used the Devil¡¯s Steps to walk over. In the blink of an eye, Xu Shiying and the other two saw that He Qi had already arrived at the entrance of the cave. They couldn¡¯t help but be shocked. When did He Qi reach there? He Qi walked straight into the cave and found that the cave was empty. There was nothing there. He couldn¡¯t help but walk deeper into the cave. He found a square-shaped dark red box on the ground. He picked it up. Just as He Qi was about to use Devil¡¯s Step to leave, the wolf pack that was fighting outside suddenly came back. He Qi immediately panicked. He couldn¡¯t deal with so many ultra beasts alone! Outside the cave, Xu Shiying and the other two saw that the wolf pack returned to the cave. They became anxious. ¡°What should we do? He Qi is still inside!¡± Zhao Yu said anxiously. ¡°We can only go up and lure them out.¡± Xu Shiying said. Zhao Yu and Luo Qing nodded, indicating that they agreed with Xu Shiying¡¯s idea. Then, the three of them went up and lured the wolves out again. He Qi, who was originally nervous in the cave, saw that the pack of wolves had gone out again. He immediately let out a sigh of relief. He quickly used the Devil¡¯s Steps to walk out. When he arrived at the entrance of the cave, he saw that it was Xu Shiying and the other two attracting the wolf pack. He immediately gave them a hand signal. When Xu Shiying and the other two saw He Qi coming out, they launched their last attack and quickly retreated. Seeing this, He Qi also left the place. It wouldn¡¯t be long before the wolves realized that their belongings were gone. It was better to leave as soon as possible. Three minutes later, the four of them gathered. ¡°What¡¯s inside?¡± Luo Qing looked at the dark red box in He Qi¡¯s hand and asked curiously. Hearing his words, Zhao Yu and Xu Shiying looked at the box with curiosity. Under their curious gazes, He Qi opened the box. Inside the box were a few pills. He took out a pill and looked at it carefully. Then, his eyes lit up as he said to them, ¡°This is a marrow cleansing pill. It can allow one¡¯s ability to level up even faster!¡± He had seen this kind of medicinal pill in the Encyclopedia of Medicinal Pills. Anyone who took the marrow cleansing pill had to endure two minutes of pain. Chapter 23 - Marrow Cleansing Pills Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio If one couldn¡¯t stand the pain and fainted, the marrow cleansing would fail. There wouldn¡¯t be any side effects after failing. However, if one¡¯s marrow cleansing was successful, it would become very easy to upgrade the abilities. For example, it originally took you three days to upgrade your ability. But after the marrow cleansing, you only needed one and a half days to level up! This marrow cleansing pill was also very rare. Even the herbs used to refine the marrow cleansing pill were very hard to find! Who would have thought that there were ten marrow cleansing pills in this box! ¡°Tonight, we¡¯ll use the marrow cleansing pill again.¡± He Qi closed the box and placed it into his bag. His tone still contained traces of excitement. When the other three heard He Qi¡¯s words, they nodded.. He Qi held the treasure map and continued walking. At this moment, a series of wolf howls could be heard from behind them. ¡°Awooo!¡± Hearing the sounds, He Qi and the other three panicked. ¡°They won¡¯t find us, right?¡± Zhao Yu¡¯s asked panickily. ¡°Let¡¯s move now!¡± He Qi replied after suppressing his panic. Then, they walked quickly in the wild area. After ten minutes, they stopped when they didn¡¯t hear the wolf howls behind them. They looked around the place they came to. It was empty and looked very safe. ¡°It¡¯s getting dark. Let¡¯s rest here for the night.¡± He Qi found a seat and sat down. The other three people heard him sitting around He Qi. ¡°Who will perform the marrow cleansing first?¡± He Qi asked. No one answered for a moment. All of them were silent. None of them dared to be the first to try. Although there were no side effects if they failed, everyone could only undergo marrow cleansing once in ten years. Therefore, they had to be very cautious! ¡°I¡¯ll go first. If I succeed, all of you do it in turn.¡± When He Qi saw that they were silent, he knew that they were worried that the marrow cleansing would fail. When they heard this, everyone immediately looked at He Qi worriedly. He Qi took out the box and ate the marrow cleansing pill without hesitation. Then, a lot of sweat appeared on his forehead. He Qi endured the intense pain in his body. When the time was almost up, the pain became more and more intense. Two minutes later, He Qi panted heavily. ¡°I did it.¡± At this time, his back was all wet. Seeing that He Qi had successfully undergone marrow cleansing, Xu Shiying immediately took the marrow cleansing pill and ate it without saying anything. Not long after, Xu Shiying had also succeeded. Zhao Yu and Luo Qing also ate the pills one by one, and all of them had successfully undergone marrow cleansing! At this time, they were all sitting under the tree to rest. ¡ª At the same time, Xiang Wanying and He Yi went home and immediately came to the door of He Qi¡¯s room. ¡°Why didn¡¯t I hear anything?¡± Xiang Wanying asked in puzzlement. ¡°Maybe he¡¯s resting.¡± He Yi answered. Xiang Wanying took out the key and opened He Qi¡¯s room. The two of them walked in and found that the bed was empty. She walked into the room quickly and searched every corner of the room, but she couldn¡¯t find He Qi. At this time, He Yi came to the open window and said, ¡°He went out through the window.¡± Hearing this, Xiang Wanying came to the window and said through gritted teeth, ¡°It seems that we have to lock his window too!¡± ¡°He¡¯s already gone. Let¡¯s just trust him this once.¡± He Yi comforted her. ¡°Trust? How can I be at ease? There are so many dangers in the wild area!¡± Xiang Wanying said angrily. It wasn¡¯t that she didn¡¯t trust He Qi, but the wild area was simply too dangerous! The high-level ultra beast was not the only danger! A mishap could even cause them to fall into a mysterious mystic realm! ¡°I¡¯ll immediately send someone to protect them in secret.¡± He Yi¡¯s expression changed as well. He could understand Xiang Wanying¡¯s anxiety and worry. He took out his phone and dialed a subordinate¡¯s number. He Yi spoke to the other end of the phone for a few minutes before hanging up. He then sent He Qi¡¯s photo over. ¡°You should be relieved now, right?¡± After He Yi had done all this, he said to Xiang Wanying who was beside him. ¡°How could I be relieved!¡± After Xiang Wanying finished speaking, she walked out of He Qi¡¯s room. He Yi sighed and followed her out of the room. ¡ª On the other side, a middle-aged man dressed in plain clothes was sitting on a stool and eating. At this moment, his cell phone rang. He took the cell phone and answered the call. After respectfully saying a few words to the person on the other end of the phone, he stood up abruptly. He sent a message and walked out of the stall. In the city, when the people who were originally setting up stalls on the streets saw the message, they put down the work in their hands and left without even caring about the stalls. ¡°Hey! You¡¯re not selling anymore?¡± The customer¡¯s exclamation came from behind him. ¡°I¡¯m close for today!¡± that person shouted. In a teaching building, the teacher, who was originally teaching the students, immediately walked out after reading the message. When he went out, he left behind the words ¡°study hard¡±. These students looked at the teacher¡¯s back view with a dumbfounded expression. In a restaurant¡¯s kitchen, the chef who had just finished cooking a dish saw the message. He immediately took off his apron and strode out. The manager at the door cursed loudly, ¡°What are you doing! Come back here! Or I¡¯ll fire you!¡± ¡°I quit!¡± The man turned back without even turning his head. In every corner of the city, all kinds of people all dropped their work and began to head to the wild area. ¡ª In the middle of the night, in the wild area. A large group of ultra beasts came out to look for food. Their cries grew louder and louder, waking up the four people who were sleeping. After they woke up, they vigilantly observed their surroundings. At this moment, a ultra beast walked over. When it saw He Qi and the others, its eyes immediately lit up. With a roar, it charged towards the four people. Chapter 24 - The Second Treasure Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Seeing this, He Qi and the others also launched their attacks at the beasts. Luo Qing used his ability to split open the ground, causing the ultra beast to stop in its tracks. With a leap, it directly jumped in front of them. In an instant, they all used their abilities to attack the ultra beast. However, these attacks didn¡¯t touch the ultra beast. Instead, they landed on the ground in front of the ultra beast. A gust of wind blew around it, directly repelling all their attacks. Not only did He Qi and the others had to attack it, but they also needed to dodge their rebounding attacks. Seeing this, He Qi used his lightning attribute ability to attack it. . Zhao Yu and He Qi¡¯s lightning struck at it together, catching it off guard. Very quickly, the ultra beast fell to the ground. Seeing this, He Qi walked over. Looking at its corpse, He Qi said to himself, ¡°Collect!¡± [ Collection successful! ] [ Level 2 high-tier wind attribute ability obtained. ] [ Do you wish to level up? ] ¡°Level up!¡± Without hesitation, He Qi chose to level up his wind attribute ability. Immediately after, a gust of strong wind blew around him. This gust of wind forcefully rushed into He Qi¡¯s body, rampaging inside his body. After so many awakenings and the marrow cleansing, he no longer felt pain. After more than ten seconds, He Qi checked his attribute level. [ Host: Ho Qi] [ Abilities: fire, wind, earth, thunder ] [ Ability level: fire, level 2 high-tier; wind, level 3 low-tier; earth, level 2 high-tier; thunder level 1 low-tier. ] As expected, it was different after the marrow cleansing! Originally, collecting this wind attribute ability wouldn¡¯t allow his to level up. However, after the marrow cleansing, his wind attribute ability directly rose to level 3! He Qi¡¯s face revealed a satisfied smile. At this moment, Xu Shiying and the other two walked over. She said, ¡°We¡¯ve all rested well. Are we going to look for the second treasure now?¡± Her tone carried a hint of anticipation. She was very eager to find out what the treasures were. ¡°There¡¯s no rush. Let¡¯s eat something first.¡± He Qi shook his head, took out some food from his bag, and said. Seeing this, Luo Qing immediately smiled and said, ¡°Hehe, I¡¯ve been hungry for a long time.¡± He took out a large pile of food from his bag, sat on the ground and began to eat. Ten minutes later, He Qi saw that they had eaten and drunk enough and had all rested well. He stood up. ¡°Let¡¯s go. Let¡¯s move on to the next treasure!¡± He said loudly. Then, the four of them carefully walked in the wild area. It was midnight now, and most of the ultra beasts had already fallen into a deep sleep. This was the best time for them! The four of them followed the map and walked for ten minutes, finally arriving at their destination. On a big tree 200 meters ahead, there was a huge bird¡¯s nest on the branch. They couldn¡¯t see the situation on the tree from under the tree, so they didn¡¯t dare to act rashly. ¡°How can we see the situation on the tree?¡± Luo Qing asked with a frown. ¡°We can only wait for now. Let¡¯s see if any ultra beasts have flown out from inside.¡± He Qi said sadly. Hearing that, the others sighed. This was the best they could do for now. They still didn¡¯t know this ultra beast. Whether it was its ability, level, or number, they were all at a loss. The four of them waited for a half an hour, and the sky was about to brighten up. Finally, they saw a huge ultra beast fly out of the bird¡¯s nest. This ultra beast had probably gone out to look for food. Seeing this, they were instantly energized. Zhao Yu and Luo Qing climbed onto the tree, while Xu Shiying and He Qi were responsible for observing under the tree. Once they found this ultra beast, they would attack it and buy them time. Zhao Yu and Luo Qing successfully climbed onto the tree branch. They looked into the bird nest, and immediately met eyes with the other ultra beast in the bird nest. ¡°Holy sh*t!¡± Zhao Yu was so scared that he cursed out loud. He directly used his ability to attack this ultra beast. He Qi, who heard the voice under the tree, raised his head and asked with puzzlement, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Luo Qing pushed the bird nest down and then he quickly descended to the ground. He replied, ¡°There¡¯s another ultra beast in the bird nest!¡± The bird fell from the tree. It grabbed something in the bird¡¯s nest and flew in the air. Seeing this, He Qi used his ability to attack its leg, trying to make it loosen its grip. However, no matter how they attacked, the bird seemed to have no sense of pain. It refused to loosen its grip even when it died. ¡°What it¡¯s grabbing is the treasure!¡± He Qi said firmly. The fact that the bird was holding on to this thing was enough to prove that it was the treasure it was protecting! Hearing He Qi¡¯s words, Zhao Yu and the other two started to attack its legs even more fiercely. At this moment, the bird that flew out earlier came back, with the food it had found in its mouth. Seeing this scene as soon as it came back, it immediately rushed over and attacked He Qi and the other two. Xu Shiying used her ability to control the vines on the ground, causing them to stand upright and rise into the air. After approaching the two giant birds, she quickly tied them up. However, the two birds clearly sensed the intentions of the vines. They flapped their wings to avoid them. They even used their abilities to attack the vines. After being attacked, the vines instantly fell back to the ground. Seeing this, He Qi immediately used his fire-attribute skills. Two large balls of flames covered the two birds in the sky, then instantly formed countless small flames that fell down. This was the first time the two birds had seen these flames. They were a little confused. When they saw that the flames were about to fall on their bodies, they instantly panicked, flapping their wings and flying everywhere. The flames all fell on the bodies of the two birds. When the flames were done, the two birds also fell to the ground. ¡°This skill is very useful!¡± Zhao Yu exclaimed when he saw this scene. Chapter 25 - Wood Attribute Skill Book Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio He Qi walked over to the corpses of the two ultra beasts and said in his heart, ¡°Collect!¡± [ Collection successful! ] [ Acquired level 2 low-tier wind attribute ability, level 2 high-tier wind attribute ability. ] [ Do you wish to level up? ] ¡°Level up!¡± He Qi said firmly. Immediately after, gusts of wind entered his body, moving from his top to the bottom. After that, He Qi checked the level of his special ability. [ Host: He Qi ] [ Ability attribute: fire, wind, earth, thunder. ] [ Ability level: fire, level 2 high-tier; wind, level 3 high-tier; earth, level 2 high-tier; thunder, level 2 high-tier. ] . When He Qi finished checking the level of his ability, he was stunned for a moment. He didn¡¯t expect that his wind attribute would be upgraded to level 3 high-tier! This time, he didn¡¯t have to fear level 3 ultra beasts anymore! He picked up the thing that had been caught by the ultra beasts. It was something that had been tied up with tree branches. He Qi broke apart the tree branches, revealing its original appearance. Inside it was a skill book. Looking at the words on the cover, it wasn¡¯t a skill book of his attribute. At this moment, Zhao Yu and the other two came to He Qi¡¯s side. They looked at the skill book in He Qi¡¯s hands. ¡°Wanton Eternity? What attribute skill book is this?¡± Zhao Yu asked curiously. He also wanted a skill book! This way, his superpower would become extremely powerful! ¡°From the looks of it, it seems to be of the wood attribute.¡± He Qi opened the skill book in his hand, took a look and said. ¡°Wood attribute?¡± Xu Shiying said in surprise. She didn¡¯t expect to find a skill book that was suitable for her! ¡°Here, take it.¡± He Qi handed the book to Xu Shiying and said. ¡°You¡­ really gave it to me?¡± Xu Shiying was very shocked, and even her tone became very excited. This was a rare skill book! Who didn¡¯t want to get it? ¡°Yeah! I don¡¯t have any wood attribute ability.¡± Seeing that Xu Shiying didn¡¯t take the skill book for a long time, He Qi directly stuffed the book into her hand. Xu Shiying looked at the skill book in her hand and was stunned for a moment. Then, a big smile appeared on her face. She said to He Qi solemnly, ¡°Thank you!¡± ¡°Let¡¯s go to the next place.¡± He Qi waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to thank him. After saying that, he continued to move forward while looking at the map. ¡ª On the other side of the wild area, a large group of people wearing all kinds of clothes gathered together. They looked at the person in front and waited for his instructions. The person standing in front of them turned around, took his cell phone, and clicked a few times. He said, ¡°I¡¯ve sent the picture. Now, 20 people in a group, split up!¡± After he said that, he selected a few people to form a group with him, He let the rest of the people form their own groups. After that, they entered the wild area and began to move. They quickly shuttled through the wild area, looking for He Qi and the others. They searched for more than ten hours, but they still couldn¡¯t find them! After a team leader sighed, he took out his cell phone and made a call. ¡°Have you found him?¡± When the call was connected, he asked anxiously. ¡°No.¡± A disappointed tone came from the other end. ¡°Continue! Find his whereabouts as soon as possible and let us know when you find him!¡± the team leader said. He hung up the phone and patted the person who was sighing beside him on the back. He said loudly, ¡°Don¡¯t sigh! Keep looking!¡± After he said that, he brought the dozen or so people behind him and continued to shuttle through the wild area. ¡ª He Qi and the others walked in the wild area for twenty minutes and finally found the third treasure location. Seeing that there were no ultra beasts guarding in front of them, they mustered their courage and walked in. The four of them searched inside for a while before they finally found it. They picked it up. Just as they were about to leave, the ultra beast guarding the treasure returned. It was a level 5 high-tier Two-headed Poisonous Python. At this moment, it saw the four of them coming out of its nest. It was instantly enraged, and it stuck out its tongue to attack them. When He Qi and the others saw this two-headed python, they were shocked. This was a level 5 ultra beast! They couldn¡¯t deal with it! But even if they couldn¡¯t deal with it, they couldn¡¯t leave either. They could only give it their all! The four of them looked at each other, then quickly attacked the python. The python suddenly spat out a mouthful of black venom at them. ¡°Be careful!¡± He Qi shouted and dodged the venom. Just as they were dodging, the python swept its tail fiercely at them, knocking them to the ground. He Qi quickly stood up and used a skill to attack the python. However, this skill was like a tickle to a level 5 high-tier ultra beast. It didn¡¯t feel anything at all as it attacked He Qi, who had already stood up. Its two heads bit towards Zhao Yu and Luo Qing, who were lying on the ground. It swung its tail and attacked He Qi. The earth walls separated the three of them and the python in an instant. Seeing this, the python directly used its head to smash through the earth walls. It quickly bit towards Zhao Yu and Luo Qing. Just as its two heads were about to touch the two of them, a crack suddenly appeared on the ground. This caused the python to have no choice but to stop its movements. It instantly turned its head and looked at He Qi with a cold and sinister gaze. ¡°Get up quickly!¡± He Qi shouted. His hands continuously used his ability to attack the python. Seeing this, the python instantly went towards He Qi and used its tail to block his attack. He Qi continuously retreated, dodging the attacks of the python. After Zhao Yu and the other two stood up, they immediately used their abilities to attack it when they saw this scene. Dozens of vines tied the python¡¯s tail and head together. Chapter 26 Upon seeing this, Luo Qing immediately used his ability to erect the earth wall, surrounding the two-headed python and trapping it. Zhao Yu and He Qi hurriedly launched their attacks on the python that was trying to break free of the vines within the earth wall. The lightning and flames all smashed onto the two-headed python¡¯s body. At this moment, the two-headed python that was tied up within the earth wall let out a furious roar. Then, it used its tail to break free from the vines. It then used its head to break through the earth walls. It quickly rushed out and launched an attack on the four people. ¡ª The group of people who were searching aimlessly in the wild area finally received a text message after searching for a few hours. . They opened their phones in anticipation and looked at the new message. ¡°Found it. In the southeast direction, they are battling with a level-5 high-tier Two-headed Poisonous Python.¡± After reading the message, everyone perked up and listened to their captain¡¯s command, quickly heading toward the southeast direction. When they arrived at their destination, they saw the scene before them. The python swept its tail across the four of them. He Qi took the opportunity to lie on its tail, while the other three were knocked to the ground. Seeing He Qi on its tail, the two-headed python immediately waved its tail to its face. It opened its mouth and spat out a mouthful of venom at He Qi. Seeing this, He Qi immediately released his hand and fell to the ground in an instant. Just as he thought he was about to be attacked by the python, a person suddenly stood in front of him. He helped He Qi block the python¡¯s attack. When He Qi saw him, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he saw a large group of people dressed in all kinds of clothes rushing over. These people attacked one after another, successfully killing the Two-headed Poisonous Python. When He Qi and the others saw this, they gathered together. Luo Qing asked curiously, ¡°Are these people here to help us? Or are they here to rob the treasure?¡± Hearing this, He Qi immediately looked at these people with vigilance. These people walked towards He Qi¡¯s group. With every step they took, He Qi¡¯s group would take a step back. They were deeply afraid that these people were here to steal the treasure. When they saw He Qi¡¯s group take a step back, they immediately stopped in their tracks. ¡°They seem to be very afraid of us?¡± One of the people in the group said. ¡°Then what do we do now?¡± another person asked. ¡°Lord only asked us to protect him in the dark. Let¡¯s retreat now!¡± The person at the front remembered the mission he had received and said. He Qi and the other three saw that they had stopped and nodded their heads before leaving. After seeing that they had left, the four of them let out a sigh of relief. It turned out that they were not here to rob their treasure. He Qi and the other three also left. After walking for more than ten minutes, they arrived at a safe place. They took out the treasure they found in the nest of the Two-headed Poisonous Python. He Qi reached out to open it and saw that there was a dark blue thing that looked like a crystal ball inside. Beside this crystal ball, there were a few porcelain bottles and a book. He Qi took out the porcelain bottles and opened them one by one to see what was inside. ¡°These are all high-grade yarrow grass!¡± He Qi said in surprise. Yarrow grass, a kind of herb that was only recorded in books. This kind of herb could allow ordinary people to become gifted ability user! In the chaotic world, this kind of herb had only appeared once and was bought by a mysterious person at an auction. It was said that after this mysterious person ate the yarrow grass, he immediately awakened the most powerful space ability. He even founded the most powerful organization at the moment ¡ª the Clear Sky Association. From then on, he had never heard any news about the yarrow grass! The other three had naturally heard of the myth of the yarrow grass, and they were extremely shocked. If this was sold on the market, it could be sold for tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions! He Qi excitedly put away the yarrow grass and took out a few books. These books were all high-level skill books. And they had all kinds of attributes! He distributed the wood attribute, earth attribute, and thunder attribute skill books to them. He kept the fire attribute and wind attribute skill books for himself. After distributing these things, He Qi put the rest of the things into his backpack. After Zhao Yu and Luo Qing received the skill books, they were very excited! They didn¡¯t think that they would actually be able to obtain a skill book in the wild area this time. Moreover, the skill books were all high-level! They carefully put away the skill book, afraid that it would be damaged. When Xu Shiying received the wood attribute skill book, she was slightly taken aback. She already had a skill book just now, and now He Qi still wanted to give it to her? Xu Shiying looked at He Qi in puzzlement. He Qi looked at the sky and said, ¡°Let¡¯s stop here. We¡¯ll come again next time.¡± She had no choice but to give up asking and put away the skill book. Zhao Yu and Luo Qing nodded after hearing it. According to the treasure points shown on the map, the further the treasures, the higher the level of the ultra beasts. So, they had to be fully prepared the next time they came! After resting for a few minutes, they walked out of the wild area. Just as they were about to reach the outside of the wild area, a series of wolf howls came from the surroundings. ¡°Awoo! ! !¡± ¡°Awoo! ! ! !¡± The four people who heard the howls immediately became vigilant. Not long after, they saw a pack of wolves charging over. This pack of wolves was the guardians of the first treasure. When they saw this pack of wolves, they started to panic. When this pack of wolves saw He Qi and the others, their eyes lit up as they locked onto them. Their speed became faster and faster. He Qi and the other three saw the pack of wolves approaching them, they immediately used their abilities on them. The pack of wolves surrounded He Qi and the other three, attacking them one by one. At this moment, the people hiding in the dark saw this scene and immediately rushed over. Without saying a word, they directly killed the pack of wolves. Chapter 27 Before He Qi and the others could react, they quickly returned to their original positions. The four of them looked at the fallen wolves and stood rooted to the ground, not understanding what had just happened. ¡°What just happened?¡± Zhao Yu asked in surprise. ¡°Someone is helping us?¡± Luo Qing said uncertainly. ¡°It seems like they are protecting us?¡± Xu Shiying frowned. That¡¯s right! They¡¯re protecting us! He Qi was very confused. They didn¡¯t know each other! Could they be protecting Xu Shiying? But judging from her reaction, it didn¡¯t seem like it at all. . ¡°Forget it. It¡¯s not bad to have someone to help kill these wolves. Let¡¯s hurry out.¡± Xu Shiying said. Hearing the voice, He Qi immediately came back to his senses and followed them out of the wild area. After leaving the wild area, they got into the car that had been parked here. Half an hour later, they returned to the city. He Qi got out of the car, waved goodbye to them and then walked on the street back home. Just as he was walking happily on the street, the stall owner took out his cell phone and tapped a few times before continuing his work. Not long after He Qi left, he saw Xiang Wanying standing in front of him in anger. He stopped in his tracks, and a bitter smile appeared on his face. Suddenly, Xiang Wanying walked towards him. Seeing this, He Qi retreated repeatedly. He saw that Xiang Wanying¡¯s speed was getting faster and faster, and he immediately ran away. This scene immediately appeared on the street. Xiang Wanying was holding a feather duster that she had obtained from God knows where. She shouted, ¡°You stinky brat! Stop right there!¡± He Qi turned around and ran even faster. For a moment, he forgot that he could use the Devil¡¯s Step. He shouted, ¡°Only a fool would stop! Unless you put down the feather duster!¡± Xiang Wanying shouted, ¡°You little brat, you still want to order me? Impossible!¡± After saying that, she chased faster and faster. Just as Xiang Wanying was about to hit He Qi, He Qi finally remembered that he still had the Devil¡¯s Step. He quickly used the Devil¡¯s Step and successfully avoided Xiang Wanying¡¯s vicious beating. He ran home and opened the door to find He Yi looking at him with a cold smile. He Qi laughed dryly and stepped back, but he was grabbed by the back collar. He stiffly turned his head and saw Xiang Wanying was glaring at him. Then he was pushed into the house by Xiang Wanying. Xiang Wanying sat on the sofa with a feather duster in her hand. She slammed the table hard and asked coldly, ¡°What did you go to the wild area for?¡± He Qi was shocked and told her what had happened while trembling. ¡°I found a treasure map from Sheng Qing. I took my good friends to the wild area over the weekend.¡± ¡°We found marrow cleansing pills, skill books, yarrow grass, and a dark blue crystal ball in the wild area.¡± As he spoke, he took out all these items, not daring to hide anything from the two of them. Xiang Wanying¡¯s expression did not change as she watched He Qi take out these items. However, when He Qi took out the dark blue crystal ball, Xiang Wanying and He Yi was a little shock. But they quickly hid their suppressed expressions. He Qi did not notice the changes in the two of them at all. Instead, he lowered his head, hoping that Xiang Wanying would be gentler when she hit him. The atmosphere instantly became quiet. Xiang Wanying sighed and said, ¡°Get up and eat!¡± When He Qi heard this, he raised his head in surprise and looked at Xiang Wanying who had walked to the dining table. A smile appeared on his face as he stood up and walked to the dining table. The three of them instantly returned to their happy and harmonious state. At this moment, He Qi asked, ¡°Do you want to eat the marrow cleansing pill?¡± Xiang Wanying¡¯s replied, ¡°No need. We¡¯ve already eaten that thing.¡± Hearing this, He Qi nodded his head. It had been a long time since this world had undergone a mutation. Although he did not know how strong Xiang Wanying and He Yi were, judging from their mysterious state, they should have eaten the marrow cleansing pill long ago. After He Qi finished eating, he packed his bag and brought it back to his room. After washing up, he laid on the bed. He had to go back to school tomorrow, so he had to go to bed early. In the living room, He Yi and Xiang Wanying sat on the sofa. Xiang Wanying held the treasure map that He Qi showed her. There were a few drawings on it that showed the treasures that He Qi and the other three had found. The rest that was not drawn were the ones that had not been found. Xiang Wanying looked at the drawing for a long time. Finally, she sighed and said, ¡°Forget it. The child will have his own ideas when he grows up. We just need to protect him well.¡± After saying that, she put the map on the table. He Yi nodded in agreement when he heard her words. ¡°However, let¡¯s not tell him about the Thunder Spirit Bead for the time being.¡± Xiang Wanying said sadly. ¡°That¡¯s right. The mystic realm is more dangerous than the wild area.¡± He Yi said. Xiang Wanying sighed after hearing that. Then, she stood up and went back to her room. He Yi followed her. The next morning, when He Qi woke up, he saw Xiang Wanying and He Yi in the house, which was rare. He was slightly surprised, but then he returned to normal state. He finished his breakfast and walked out of the house. When he arrived at the school gate, he saw Xu Shiying who had arrived at the same time. He smiled and greeted Xu Shiying. ¡°What a coincidence.¡± ¡°What a coincidence indeed.¡± Xu Shiying smiled. Actually, she had found out from the intelligence network when He Qi had left the school. When she found out, she had followed him out, which led to the two of them meeting at the school gate together. She actually wanted to ask him if he really wanted to give her the two skill books? ¡°I only need one skill book.¡± Xu Shiying said. He Qi was stunned when he heard her voice. He turned to look at her. He asked curiously, ¡°Isn¡¯t it the stronger the better? Just take it. It¡¯s so hard to awaken the wood attribute.¡± After saying that, he walked into the school. Chapter 28 Hearing this, Xu Shiying was stunned for a moment. With a smile on her face, she followed behind He Qi. He was right! It was indeed very difficult to awaken the wood attribute, even for the ultra beasts. Moreover, increasing her strength had always been her goal! Xu Shiying walked quickly to He Qi¡¯s side and didn¡¯t say anything else. The smile on her face never faded. What they didn¡¯t know was that behind them, there was someone staring at them viciously. He raised his foot and walked in, following them. Seeing the two of them chatting and laughing as they walked into the classroom, the person sneered. Then, he turned around and left, returning to his own classroom.. The moment He Qi and Xu Shiying walked into the classroom, the people in the classroom immediately started discussing. ¡°Did you see that? He Qi is the one who killed Sheng Heyi!¡± ¡°So the destruction of the Sheng family is related to He Qi! I really didn¡¯t expect it!¡± ¡°Could it be that he killed the entire Sheng Family? !¡± ¡°My God! I think it¡¯s very possible!¡± ¡°Sheng Heyi targeted him back then. He deserved to die!¡± ¡°Exactly! It¡¯s just a person who died in this chaotic era. What¡¯s the big deal?¡± He Qi immediately frowned when he heard their voices. He didn¡¯t know where they got such a secret information from. Then, he looked at the blackboard and immediately understood. In fact, it was written on the blackboard that it was He Qi who killed the three members of the Sheng family. He Qi sneered when he saw this. So what if he was the one who killed them all? The destruction of the entire Sheng family had nothing to do with him! He would admit that he did it, but if he didn¡¯t do it, no one could blame him! Xu Shiying took a look at He Qi and went on stage to erase all the words on the blackboard. She said coldly to the people who were still talking, ¡°If you say any more, I¡¯ll cut out all your tongues!¡± As soon as she said this, the classroom suddenly became quiet. He Qi looked at her actions and felt a warmth in his heart. No one had ever defended him like this before. At this time, a stern voice came from the door, ¡°Didn¡¯t you hear the bell?¡± ¡°Why aren¡¯t you back to your seats?¡± Hearing this, Xu Shiying and He Qi immediately returned to their seats. He Qi put down his book and narrowed his eyes as he pondered. Who could have known so thoroughly and even made this matter public? He had to investigate this matter! Time flew by and it was soon time for school to end. After school, He Qi did not make any movements and remained seated. When Xu Shiying saw this, she thought that he was shocked by today¡¯s incident. She walked over to He Qi and sat down. She comforted him, ¡°There¡¯s nothing to be alarmed about. It¡¯s not strange to kill a person in this chaotic world.¡± He Qi was stunned when he heard this. He did not understand what Xu Shiying meant and looked at her in confusion. Xu Shiying did not see his confused gaze at all. She continued, ¡°How about this, I¡¯ll treat you to a meal to comfort you.¡± ¡°Okay!¡± He Qi replied. Xu Shiying heaved a sigh of relief when she heard He Qi¡¯s reply. She thought that he would continue to ignore her. ¡°Do you know how to see the surveillance cameras in the classroom?¡± He Qi asked. This time, Xu Shiying was stunned. It turned out that what he cared about was not this matter, but how to find the person who did it! It seemed that she had comforted him for nothing just now. And she even had to treat him a meal now. He Qi did not hear her reply for a long time and pushed her. After Xu Shiying came back to her senses, she looked at him in confusion, as if she did not hear what he was asking just now. He Qi repeated what he had asked just now. ¡°The surveillance cameras can usually be checked in the principal¡¯s office.¡± Xu Shiying thought for a moment before answering. After hearing the answer, He Qi stood up and walked towards the door. Seeing this, Xu Shiying immediately followed behind him. The two of them walked together on the way to the principal¡¯s office. At this moment, a person appeared in front of them and blocked their way. He Qi looked over and found that he didn¡¯t recognize this person. ¡°You don¡¯t need to look for him. I did it.¡± that person said indifferently. Hearing his words, He Qi and Xu Shiying frowned. ¡°How do you know about this?¡± He Qi asked coldly. That person chuckled, then his expression changed, ¡°You don¡¯t need to worry how I know.¡± ¡°You only need to know this phrase, ¡®a life for a life¡¯!¡± After saying that, he used his ability to attack He Qi. He Qi dodged his attack. His eyes turned cold as he used his ability to attack back. Xu Shiying helped He Qi to attack him. The branches around the school suddenly spread over and bound that person¡¯s feet, making him unable to move. At this moment, a gust of strong wind blew around, making it so that the person could not open his eyes. The flames in the sky immediately fell on his body. He could only endure the flames. However, his body was suffused with white light, and the branches that had trapped him were instantly broken free. The flames that fell on his body surged into his body, but he was completely unharmed! Seeing this, He Qi frowned even more. He didn¡¯t expect this person¡¯s ability to be light attribute! That was an ability that was second only to the space attribute! Fortunately, that person¡¯s level wasn¡¯t as high as his, and he didn¡¯t learn any skills. But even so, he still couldn¡¯t kill this person in front of him. He pulled Xu Shiying¡¯s hand and said, ¡°If we do this, both of us will be injured.¡± Xu Shiying saw that scene and naturally understood what He Qi meant. They could not continue fighting like this. If Zhao Yu and Luo Qing were here at this time¡­ Then things would go in another direction! Chapter 29 The person looked at them contemptuously and attacked them with his ability. Just as He Qi and Xu Shiying were dodging his attack, his was suddenly ambushed by someone at the back. He Qi looked behind him and found Zhao Yu and Luo Qing. ¡°Now he¡¯s no match for us.¡± Xu Shiying said. The person turned around and looked back. At this moment, He Qi and Xu Shiying suddenly attacked him. However, just as the attack was about to reach him, a white light appeared around him and dissolved their attacks. The man seemed to have realized that he was no match for the four people. He took out an item and threw it on the ground.. A pungent mist instantly spread. When the mist dissipated, he was already gone. He Qi already knew who did this, so there was no need to go to the principal¡¯s office again. The four of them gathered together and walked in the direction of the school gate. ¡°How did you meet him?¡± Zhao Yu asked. ¡°Do you know who he is?¡± He Qi did not answer his question and asked. ¡°His name is Feng Qing, and he¡¯s an orphan.¡± Zhao Yu explained. ¡°Then what¡¯s his relationship with the Sheng Qing?¡± He Qi frowned and asked. He did not understand what kind of relationship this person had with the Sheng family, to actually target him like this. ¡°I remember now! Sheng Qing once saved an orphan five years ago, and his name was Feng Qing!¡± At this moment, Xu Shiying suddenly patted her head and said. Hearing her words, He Qi instantly understood. However, how did he know that the death of the three members of the Sheng family was related to him? It seemed that he couldn¡¯t leave Feng Qing off! If his light attribute special ability was improved, the four of them might not be his match! With this thought, He Qi took out dozens of crystal cores from his bag. After giving these crystal cores to them, he said, ¡°We have to improve our abilities quickly. I¡¯m afraid that Feng Qing isn¡¯t so simple!¡± Hearing He Qi¡¯s words, everyone¡¯s faces immediately turned solemn. He Qi¡¯s premonition was very accurate! As long as he felt that something was wrong, it would happen in the next moment! Therefore, they had no choice but to take Feng Qing seriously. He might be a great threat to them in the future! Zhao Yu and the other two took the crystal cores in their hands, and the four of them walked out of the school gate together. ¡°Feng Qing¡¯s level is lower than ours at the moment, and he doesn¡¯t have any skills yet. We have to train our skills as soon as possible.¡± He Qi said solemnly. At this moment, he had a strong premonition that dealing with Feng Qing would be more difficult than dealing with Sheng Heyi! When Zhao Yu and the other two heard this, they all nodded, indicating that they understood. Not far behind them, Feng Qing was standing in a hidden place, watching their figures leave. When he could no longer see their backs, he left with a smile. When He Qi returned home, he heard Xiang Wanying¡¯s voice on the phone. ¡°I don¡¯t care what method you use, you have to bring all of this back!¡± Xiang Wanying said coldly to the other end of the phone, and then she hung up the phone. When she turned around and saw He Qi¡¯s figure, a smile immediately appeared on her face. She asked, ¡°You¡¯re back? Are you hungry?¡± When He Qi heard this, he shook his head and said, ¡°I¡¯m not very hungry yet. I¡¯ll go back to my room first.¡± After saying that, he heard Xiang Wanying reply, ¡°Okay.¡± When He Qi heard that, he walked back to his room. After returning to his room, he took out a wind attribute skill book and started reading it. Twenty minutes later, just as He Qi was about to finish reading the book, there was a knock on the door. Following that, Xiang Wanying¡¯s voice was heard. ¡°It¡¯s time to eat!¡± When He Qi heard that, he replied, ¡°Got it!¡± Then, he closed the book and walked out of the room. He went to the dining table and sat down. He Qi quickly finished his meal and said, ¡°I¡¯ve finished eating. You guys take your time to eat.¡± He walked back to his room and finished reading the skill book. Then, he took out a fire attribute crystal core. After he finished absorbing the fire attribute crystal core, he said, ¡°Check the ability attribute level.¡± [ Host: He Qi ] [ Ability Attribute: fire, wind, earth, thunder. ] [ Ability Level: fire, level 3 low-tier; wind, level 3 high-tier; earth, level 2 high-tier; thunder, level 1 low-tier. ] After reading these messages, He Qi went to wash up, then went to bed to rest. ¡ª In a simple apartment on the other side. Feng Qing was absorbing the crystal cores to improve his ability. These crystal cores were all obtained from killing ultra beasts of all attributes when he participated in the school¡¯s training. In the past few days, he had been absorbing these crystal cores every day, but his ability hadn¡¯t improved at all. He had been stuck at level 2 low-tier. After Feng Qing had finished absorbing the crystal cores, a cloud of black mist suddenly appeared in front of him. After the mist dissipated, a man wearing a black robe and a mask appeared in front of him. His body was emitting a dark aura. Feng Qing was frightened by this aura. He suddenly stood up and stepped back. Even his words were trembling. ¡°You¡­ You¡­ Who are you? Why did you break into my house?¡± The mysterious man lowered his voice and said, ¡°You don¡¯t have to care about who I am. You just need to know that I¡¯m here to help you.¡± Feng Qing heard this and was puzzled. ¡°Help me? We¡¯ve never met before. Why are you helping me?¡± The mysterious man did not answer him. Instead, he reached out and threw something on his table. After that, the black mist appeared once more. After the mist dissipated, he had already left the place. Feng Qing walked over to the table. He picked up the item and opened it to take a look. He was instantly stunned on the spot. This was a marrow cleansing pill, as well as three light attribute crystal cores! Chapter 30 After Feng Qing saw these things, he believed what the mysterious man said about helping him. He was very happy, but he was also very confused. Why did the mysterious man want to help him? Could it be that he also had a grudge against He Qi? Feng Qing ate the marrow-cleansing pill with doubts in his heart. Then, his body immediately became extremely painful. He was even about to faint. However, when he thought about how He Qi had killed three members of the Sheng family, he gritted his teeth and persevered. Just as he was about to faint, the pain finally dissipated. He collapsed on the bed. He was totally exhausted. . ¡­ Time passed quickly. Tomorrow was the exciting holiday that made everyone happy! During this period of time, He Qi didn¡¯t see Feng Qing, but he still had a strong premonition about him! The four of them continued to upgrade their abilities. Their abilities had all been upgraded to level 5 low-tier. During the weekend, the four of them still went to the wild area to search for treasures. During the treasure hunt, the four of them encountered extremely dangerous ultra beasts, but they were all protected by the people who hid in the dark. They didn¡¯t know who these people were protecting, but this kind of feeling seemed pretty good! The four of them searched the wild area according to the map. They obtained level-10 low-tier crystal core, a few brown, golden crystal balls, and even four eggs! Each of them took one egg, a few crystal cores, and the rest were all put into He Qi¡¯s bag. On the second day of the holiday, He Qi packed his things and left the house. When He Yi saw them, he immediately took out his phone and sent some messages. Then, he walked out of the house. He Qi came to the meeting point. The four of them got into the car together. The driver sent them out of the wild area. Behind the car they were sitting in, there were several cars following them. He Qi and the others walked into the wild area. When the people behind them saw them, they quickly followed them, but they did not get too close to them. After they entered the wild area for ten minutes, a person also walked in as well. He Qi looked at the map and led the three of them to the hiding place of the treasure. The four of them walked for half an hour, and finally found the last hiding place of the treasure. They stopped in front of a cave not far away. They observed for a long time but didn¡¯t find any ultra beasts guarding the treasure. ¡°If there are no ultra beasts guarding the treasure, won¡¯t we get it sooner?¡± Luo Qing asked. ¡°Why don¡¯t we go in and take a look?¡± Zhao Yu suggested. ¡°That¡¯s fine. Let¡¯s go.¡± He Qi replied. Then, the four carefully walked into the cave. After searching for a while, they finally saw a medium-sized wooden box on the wall of the cave. He Qi used his ability to hit the box down to the ground. After he got the box, the four of them immediately walked out of the cave. However, just as they walked out of the cave, a large group of bats instantly flew out of the cave. They flew directly in front of He Qi, wanting to take the box back from him. Seeing them approaching, He Qi immediately used his fire power to attack them. The flames in the sky didn¡¯t wait for the bats to react. They quickly fell down, directly smashing the bats down. The bats that fell down quickly flew back into the sky in less than a minute. The four of them attacked the bats. Seeing this, the bats formed a circle and formed a huge ball. Then, they quickly rushed toward He Qi. The bats allowed the other three to attack, but they only rushed toward He Qi. He Qi also noticed their strange behavior and held the box tightly. This box was something that they would risk their lives to retrieve. The treasure inside must be valuable! The bats suddenly cried out a few times in the air, and then they heard the sound of ¡°Dong, dong, dong!¡±. Following that, they saw many ultra beasts coming from all directions. They charged towards He Qi. Seeing this, the people hiding in the shadows immediately jumped out to protect He Qi and attack the ultra beasts. Seeing the ultra beasts appear, He Qi narrowed his eyes. Now, he was even more certain that the treasures in this box were absolutely precious! Otherwise, these bats would only screech a few times, and there wouldn¡¯t be so many ultra beasts appearing! He Qi directly put the box into his bag, then hugged his bag tightly and hid in a safe corner. He used his ability on these ultra beasts. When the bats saw He Qi disappear, they circled twice in the air and found He Qi¡¯s position. They rushed towards He Qi, not forgetting to attack him. Seeing this, He Qi immediately used his wind attribute skill to attack them. At this moment, a strong gust of wind blew up in the surroundings. The leaves on the trees and the rocks on the ground were blown up by the wind. The leaves and rocks turned into sharp weapons that could hurt people instantly, attacking the ultra beasts. The bats were also swaying in the air due to the strong wind. They collided with each other. At this moment, two large balls of flames appeared above their heads. The flames separated into countless small flames, and then quickly smashed onto their bodies. They were hit so hard that they fell to the ground. Their wings were also burned by the flames, so they couldn¡¯t fly anymore. Ten minutes later, these ultra beasts had all been killed by them. For a moment, the place returned to silence. He Qi and the other three left the place with the box. They found a relatively safe place and sat together. He Qi took out the box and opened it. He found that there were three beads inside. ¡°They went all out just to protect these three beads?¡± The corner of Zhao Yu¡¯s mouth twitched as he said. ¡°That¡¯s right, isn¡¯t it just a few beads? What treasures are these?¡± Luo Qing said indifferently. He Qi looked at the three beads and fell into deep thought. If it were just ordinary three beads, the ultra beasts would certainly not risk their lives to retrieve it. But what if these weren¡¯t ordinary beads? Chapter 31 - Mystic Realm Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio These beads seemed to be able to activate something. At this moment, He Qi remembered that there were three identical crystal balls in his bag. He immediately took the three crystal balls out of his bag and put them together. Seeing this, Zhao Yu and the other two immediately stopped their discussion and looked at He Qi¡¯s actions. When these crystal balls gathered together, a blue light instantly lit up. Behind them, a huge caption appeared. ¡°Look! There are words!¡± Luo Qing pointed to a spot and exclaimed. The three people who heard the voice immediately followed his finger and looked over. He Qi and the other two were very shocked after reading these words. They didn¡¯t expect that there was a mystic realm in the wild area! And these crystal balls were the keys to open the mystic realm! No wonder these ultra beasts were so nervous about these three crystal balls. It turned out that they were trying to stop them from entering the mystic realm! But what secret was hidden in this mystic realm? He Qi was very curious about what was hidden in this mystic realm! At this time, Zhao Yu asked in a low voice, ¡°Are we going to the mystic realm?¡± He Qi recovered from his shock and said firmly, ¡°Yes! We have to find the entrance to the mystic realm first.¡± Hearing his words, the other three nodded with a trace of excitement and expectation in their hearts. They were looking forward to finding treasures in the mystic realm that could improve their abilities. Then, He Qi put away the few crystal balls that opened the key to the mystic realm. ¡°But the wild area is so big. How do we find the entrance to the mystic realm?¡± Xu Shiying pointed out the key point. Hearing this, the three fell into silence. ¡°Besides, we don¡¯t even know what the entrance looks like. How are we going to find it?¡± Xu Shiying continued. She was right. They couldn¡¯t just search aimlessly, right? Then how long would they have to search for it? Suddenly, the place fell silent. ¡°Let¡¯s look around first. The entrance to the mystic realm should be very strange.¡± He Qi stood up and said. Hearing this, Luo Qing immediately replied, ¡°That¡¯s right! Let¡¯s look around first. What if we find it right after we start searching?¡± When Xu Shiying heard this, she nodded and said, ¡°Then let¡¯s set off now.¡± After she finished speaking, she stood up. The four of them set off together, looking for the entrance to the mystical realm. When one of the people hiding in the dark saw this, he immediately took out his phone and tapped a few times. After receiving the message, he put his phone away. Then, he relayed the message he had just received to the people behind him. After he finished speaking, he led these people and continued to follow behind He Qi and the other three. He Qi and the other three specially headed to a remote place, looking for the mysterious entrance. ¡ª On the other side of the wild area, Feng Qing had followed He Qi and the others into the wild area, but he hadn¡¯t seen any trace of them. Walking alone in the wild area, an ultra beast suddenly ran in a direction. Soon after, he saw many ultra beasts running in that direction. He followed curiously and found a large group of people attacking a large group of ultra beasts. When he saw He Qi and the other three, his eyes lit up. He had finally found them! After they had finished killing these ultra beasts and walked to a safe place, Feng Qing followed behind them the whole time. Feng Qing took in their conversation and witnessed what they saw. After they left, he followed behind them quietly. There was a group of people protecting He Qi¡¯s team in the dark, so he did not dare to act rashly. After all, he was no match for them, nor he could deal with them alone. He was afraid that he would die in this wild area. He Qi and the others searched for an entire day, but they could not find any mysterious entrance that led to the mystic realm. They found a safe place to sit down and rest. They lit the bonfire and sat around it. ¡°This is too hard to find!¡± Luo Qing said dejectedly. They searched for an entire day but couldn¡¯t find the entrance to the mystic realm. Instead, they killed tons of ultra beasts. They didn¡¯t know why, but could it be that the ultra beasts knew that they had gathered five crystal balls? Luo Qing fell into a deep sleep as he thought about it. Gradually, only the crackling sounds of the bonfire could be heard. In any case, there were people here to protect him, so he wasn¡¯t worried about being attacked in the middle of the night! Everyone fell asleep peacefully. In the middle of the night, Feng Qing saw that they were all asleep. Then, he climbed onto the tree opposite them and attacked them with his ability from the tree. However, just as he was about to hit them, his attack was blocked. Then, he felt a strong wind blowing towards him. Feng Qing immediately dodged the attack. The wind made the leaves rustle. He didn¡¯t dare to act rashly anymore. There were nearly a hundred people protecting He Qi¡¯s team, and he was alone. It seemed that he could only kill them after entering the mystic realm! The next morning, He Qi and the other three woke up and packed up before setting off again. On the way, they observed their surroundings and the changes of the ultra beasts. They walked for an entire morning without finding anything unusual. They found a place to sit down and rest. Just as He Qi opened the zipper, a dazzling light suddenly appeared. He Qi hurriedly took out the glowing crystal ball. Zhao Yu and the other two immediately surrounded it. ¡°F*ck! What¡¯s going on?¡± Zhao Yu said in surprise. ¡°I don¡¯t know. It suddenly lit up.¡± He Qi replied. ¡°Could it be that this light is guiding us?¡± Xu Shiying guessed. Hearing her words, He Qi¡¯s eyes lit up. That¡¯s right! This was the key to open the mystic realm. It was guiding them to the location of the mystic realm! ¡°You¡¯re right! We¡¯ll head there as soon as we finish our food!¡± He Qi¡¯s tone was a little excited. When the other three heard this, they quickly finished their food and stood up. They followed the crystal ball and headed in the direction where it would be brighter.. Chapter 32 - The Guidance of the Crystal Ball Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Feng Qing, who was hiding in the dark, immediately perked up when he heard their conversation. He stared at their figures and followed behind them. The four of them walked for an entire day, but they still didn¡¯t reach the entrance of the mystic realm. At night, they sat in front of the bonfire and ate the roasted meat of the ultra beasts. ¡°Could it be that we guessed wrong? This isn¡¯t guiding us.¡± Luo Qing swallowed a mouthful of meat and said. ¡°It¡¯s not impossible, I believe that it is guiding us to the entrance!¡± He Qi said firmly. ¡°This wild area is too big. The entrance to the mystic realm isn¡¯t so easy to find.¡± Xu Shiying said. Luo Qing nodded after hearing that. Xu Shiying was right. This wild area was too big. When they searched for the treasures, they could only manage to reach one spot per day. It took them two or three weeks to find all the treasures. ¡°Rest first. We¡¯ll continue tomorrow.¡± after He Qi finished eating, he wiped his mouth and said. When the other three heard this, they all nodded. He Qi leaned against a big tree, closed his eyes, and began to rest. The next morning, He Qi and the other three put on their backpacks and continued to set off. He Qi held the crystal ball in his hand and watched the brightness of the crystal ball as they walked. Under the guidance of the crystal ball, the four of them took many turns and killed many ultra beasts along the way. After walking for three days, they finally found the entrance to the mystic realm. However, the entrance to the mystic realm wasn¡¯t so easy to enter. At this moment, there were two level 10 high-tier ultra beasts standing at the entrance. When they saw someone or an ultra beast approaching, they immediately killed them. He Qi and the other three stopped 200 meters away, observing the situation in front of them. ¡°Are we still entering the mystic realm?¡± Luo Qing looked at the two ultra beasts in front of them and said in a low voice. ¡°Yes! But not now.¡± He Qi said firmly. The two ultra beasts in front of them were level 10 high-tier. The four of them, together with the people protecting them in the dark, could still kill these two ultra beasts! However, for safety reasons, it was better to wait until night time before taking action. At night, these two ultra beasts should at rest. However, He Qi was wrong. They just stood there like this for an entire day. They also followed these two ultra beasts for an entire day. ¡°Aren¡¯t you going to attack?¡± Luo Qing asked. They had been watching the two ultra beasts for an entire day, yet they didn¡¯t see any movement from them. ¡°Go!¡± He Qi shouted loudly. Hearing this, the three of them immediately lit up with fighting spirit and followed He Qi to attack the two ultra beasts. Seeing this, the people hiding in the dark also followed them to attack the ultra beasts. When the two ultra beasts saw He Qi and the other three approaching them, they immediately launched attacks at them. He quickly dodged their attacks and used his special ability to attack them. The two ultra beasts moved very quickly, dodging the attacks of He Qi and the others. At this moment, a large group of people suddenly appeared. They all attacked the two ultra beasts. Seeing so many people, the two ultra beasts didn¡¯t panic at all. They roared fiercely to a side. Then, five ultra beasts suddenly appeared over there. They were all level 10 high-tier beasts! He Qi and the others were shocked and panic. These two level 10 ultra beasts weren¡¯t easy to deal with in the first place, yet another five of them appeared. They were all extremely powerful ultra monsters! ¡°What should we do now?¡± Zhao Yu shouted. ¡°Retreat first! We¡¯re not a match for them!¡± After that, they turned around and left the scene. When those people hidden in the dark saw He Qi and the others leave, they also left the place. He Qi and the others walked to a safe area and sat under a tree to rest. ¡°It¡¯s too scary!¡± Luo Qing patted his chest and said. ¡°What do we do now? Do we still have to go in?¡± Zhao Yu said after he recovered. ¡°Of course we have to go in! It seems that we can only use our wits!¡± He Qi said firmly. ¡°How do we use our wits?¡± Xu Shiying asked curiously. He Qi hooked his finger, and they immediately moved their heads closer. Five minutes later, they sat down with a smile on their faces. ¡°This is a good idea!¡± Zhao Yu praised. Luo Qing also gave a thumbs up, thinking that He Qi¡¯s idea was flawless! The two groups of people hiding in the dark were very curious about what He Qi was talking about. ¡°Captain, what do you think of their ¡®good¡¯ idea?¡± a man in a chef¡¯s uniform asked. ¡°Exactly. Can it be as good as our Lord¡¯s original plan?¡± A man in plain clothes said proudly. ¡°Enough! Stop discussing. We¡¯ll see tomorrow!¡± At this moment, the captain shouted sternly. Feng Qing on the other side said coldly, ¡°What good idea can He Qi come up with?¡± Those who didn¡¯t have the ability to kill these ultra beasts would think of these crooked ways! The next day, they came to the entrance of the mystic realm again. They observed the direction in which the ultra beasts came out yesterday. They appeared out of thin air from the side! He Qi glanced at Luo Qing and Xu Shiying, then nodded, indicating that the two of them could begin to move. After that, the four of them climbed up the tree. After they were done, they looked at the side of the two ultra beasts. A crack suddenly appeared on the rock beside them, but it didn¡¯t affect the two ultra beasts at all. They didn¡¯t change at all. The cracks on the two sides grew larger and larger. They only stopped after reaching a certain level. After that, the vines slithered on the ground until they reached the two cracks. Their speed grew faster and faster. They were weaving a net in the cracks. After He Qi and Zhao Yu saw that the net had been woven, they used their lightning attribute abilities on the two sides of the net. Instantly, dark blue lightning flashed on the vines. After weaving the net, the vines didn¡¯t stop. They glided all the way to the sky above the two ultra beasts guarding them. They had also woven a net around them. The two ultra beasts hadn¡¯t sensed any danger yet.. Chapter 33 - Entering the Mystic Realm Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The vines surrounded the two guarding ultra beasts. Zhao Yu and He Qi cast thunder attribute abilities on the vines, so that these two ultra beasts would be electrocuted the moment they came into contact with them. After all the preparations had been made, He Qi and the others rushed over and used their abilities to attack the two ultra beasts. Seeing this, the people in the dark immediately rushed out and attacked the two ultra beasts as well. The two ultra beasts were caught off guard by the attack. They were about to roar and called out the other ultra beasts for help. He Qi and Zhao Yu immediately cut down the big tree next to them. They picked the woods up and stuffed them into the ultra beasts¡¯ mouths. This time, they couldn¡¯t roar anymore! Ten minutes later, they finally killed the two ultra beasts and walked toward the entrance of the mystic realm. They looked at the locked door at the entrance, which had a few round holes. Seeing this, He Qi took out the crystal balls and put them into the holes one by one. After putting them in, he turned the crystal balls slightly and then heard a ¡°kacha¡± sound. The door was opened! It was pitch black inside and one couldn¡¯t see their fingers. He Qi and the other three carefully walked in with a large group of people behind them. Suddenly, a loud ¡°bang!¡± startled everyone. They looked behind them and found that the door had been closed. ¡°How¡­ how do we get out of here?¡± Luo Qing widened his eyes and said. ¡°We¡¯ll cross the bridge when we come to it. It¡¯s impossible to keep us locked up forever.¡± He Qi said. ¡°That¡¯s right, there will always be a way out.¡± Xu Shiying said. Hearing the words of the two, Luo Qing¡¯s tension eased up a little. Then, the four people walked in, but it was pitch black here, so they couldn¡¯t see the road ahead clearly! At this moment, there was a ¡°pa¡± sound, and the entire mystical realm lit up. They blinked their eyes a few times and adapted to the light. They finally saw the environment of the mystical realm clearly. It was just like the ancient times. The ancient buildings were surrounded by a white mist. Who knew that the scene here would suddenly change! The original buildings and houses were all shattered and turned into ruins. The ruins here still existed after the flow of time, but many trees had grown around them. Suddenly, the scene here changed again! The original ruins were blown away by the wind, and this place became a wilderness without any vitality. This scene had been frozen for a long time, and there had been no changes. The only thing that had not changed here was the dense fog! Luo Qing said in surprise, ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡± ¡°This should be the changes of the mystic realm in the past, right?¡± He Qi said calmly. Then, they lifted their feet and walked into the mystic realm. Seeing this, the people hiding in the dark immediately followed them. The few of them walked aimlessly. At this moment, an ultra beast suddenly rushed out from the southwest direction of them. They found that this ultra beast was a level 7 mid-tier. They were shocked! They took a few steps back and began to attack the ultra beast that was charging over. The two balls of flames in the sky instantly fell down, smashing onto the body of the ultra beast. A strong gust of wind blew in the surroundings. The sand on the ground was blown up by the wind, blinding the eyes of the ultra beast. The ultra beast suddenly roared into the sky. Immediately after, the surroundings of the ultra beast began to glow with white light. The attacks of He Qi and the other three all surged into its body. ¡°It¡¯s a light-attributed ultra beast!¡± Zhao Yu said in surprise. He Qi had also seen the attributes of this ultra beast, and immediately frowned. Feng Qing, who was hiding in the dark, suddenly had his eyes lit up as he stared fixedly at the ultra beast. For a moment, everyone attacked the ultra beast with their abilities. Half an hour later, they successfully killed the ultra beast. He Qi walked over to the corpse of the ultra beast and muttered, ¡°Collect!¡± Then, he heard the familiar voice of the system in his mind. [ Collect successful! ] [ Acquired level 1 low-tier light attribute ability! ] [ Do you wish to awaken it? ] ¡°Not yet.¡± He Qi replied. At present, he already had four special abilities of different attributes. He would wait until these four attribute special abilities were all level 10 high-tier before awakening his light attribute ability! He came back to his senses and continued walking forward. ¡°What are we looking for here?¡± Luo Qing asked curiously. ¡°Judging from the level of these ultra beasts, there is definitely a great treasure here!¡± He Qi guessed. ¡°Although the opportunity is great, danger is everywhere!¡± Xu Shiying said. She was right! The opportunity was great, but the danger was also great! The four of them walked in the mystic realm. Gradually, the fog here became thicker, but they had no choice but to stop. ¡°The fog here is too thick! Let¡¯s find a place to rest first!¡± He Qi said loudly. However, he didn¡¯t hear a response from behind for a long time. He frowned and turned around. He realized that the people behind him had disappeared! He Qi was shocked when he saw this. He immediately walked back to look for them. On the other side, Xu Shiying panicked when she saw the people in front of her suddenly disappear. She said to Zhao Yu and Luo Qing, ¡°He Qi is gone!¡± The two people who heard the voice also panicked. could he be in danger? The three of them immediately shouted, ¡°He Qi!¡± ¡°He Qi!¡± They hoped that He Qi could hear their voices and come looking for them. ¡ª On the other side, a large group of people were lost in the fog. They couldn¡¯t see the road ahead and only knew to walk forward. At this moment, they heard the shouting and immediately walked towards the source of the voice.. Chapter 34 - The Illusion Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio At this moment, He Qi was also looking for them. However, the more he walked back, the denser the fog became. Gradually, he could not see the road ahead clearly. He Qi stopped walking. He had already realized that something was wrong. He could not hear any sound or see any figure. It was very likely an illusion! However, where was the breakthrough point of the illusion? He Qi looked around, trying to find a way to break through the illusion. Soon, he found something strange about this place. There were a few big trees around him. No matter where he went, these trees were still there, without any changes. He Qi used his ability to attack a tree next to him. Just as his ability was about to hit the tree, it changed! It moved quickly. When it moved to a safe place, it stopped, as if nothing had happened before. Seeing this, He Qi knew that the breakthrough point was these trees! Without hesitation, he used his ability to attack the trees. A strong wind blew in the surroundings, becoming stronger and stronger, trying to blow the trees down. However, none of this had any effect on them. Seeing this, He Qi immediately switched to another ability. Countless flames fell from the sky, smashing onto the trees. When the flames fell on the trees, the flames immediately spread. The trees were all burned up by He Qi¡¯s ability, and the scene changed. He Qi finally saw Xu Shiying and the others. ¡ª Before He Qi came out, Xu Shiying and the other two also found themselves in an illusion. Then, they saw a group of people protecting them. Soon, the group found an opening and immediately attacked it. In less than five minutes, they came out of the illusion. Not long after they came out, they saw He Qi. ¡°You just came out of the illusion?¡± Zhao Yu asked. It seemed that they had all encountered an illusion. He Qi nodded and said, ¡°Ya, let¡¯s find a place to rest first.¡± After he said that, he got their approval. They were very hungry now and a little tired. They didn¡¯t know how long they had walked, but they still couldn¡¯t find a safe place. At this moment, two ultra beasts rushed over from behind them. The ground shook as the two ultra beasts ran. When He Qi and the other three noticed the ground shaking, they immediately looked behind them and saw two oxen charging at them. Seeing this, the four of them immediately used their abilities on them. The two ultra beasts were attacked so much that they didn¡¯t stop, continuing to charge forward. The people in the dark jumped out and charged at the two ultra beasts, helping He Qi and the other three to attack them. The two ultra beasts stopped after they saw huge group of humans. With murderous intent in their eyes, the two ultra beasts roared angrily and began to attack them. One after another, bolts of lightning struck down from the sky towards He Qi and the others. However, He Qi allowed the lightning to strike him. Xu Shiying, who was dodging the lightning, shouted, ¡°You¡¯re crazy! Dodge it!¡± He Qi still didn¡¯t dodge. Instead, he smiled at Xu Shiying and said, ¡°I can absorb these lightning bolts to improve my thunder attribute ability.¡± After saying that, he turned to Zhao Yu, who was dodging the lightning bolts, and said, ¡°Absorbing these lightning bolts can improve your thunder attribute ability.¡± Hearing his words, Zhao Yu immediately stopped and allowed the lightning bolts to strike him. Just as he thought he was about to be injured by the lightning, he didn¡¯t feel any pain when he was struck by it. Instead, the bolt of lightning fused into his body. Then, he felt that his ability had actually increased by a little! He looked at He Qi in surprise. He didn¡¯t expect that what He Qi said was actually true! The lightning actually had such an effect! He Qi and Zhao Yu stood motionlessly on the spot, absorbing the attacks of the ultra beasts. After the two ultra beasts were killed, their lightning attribute ability had also been successfully upgraded to level 5 mid-tier. Zhao Yu came to He Qi¡¯s side with a smile, and asked curiously, ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that the attacks of ultra beasts could be absorbed. How did you know?¡± ¡°I learned this by chance.¡± He Qi replied. ¡°Can the attacks of ultra beasts of the same attribute be absorbed as well?¡± Xu Shiying asked. She saw that after the two of them absorbed the attacks of ultra beasts, their special abilities had improved. She also wanted to improve her abilities! He Qi shook his head and said, ¡°If the level of ultra beasts is too high, we can¡¯t absorb their attacks.¡± ¡°How high exactly is the level too high?¡± Xu Shiying asked in puzzlement. ¡°For example, if your level is level 5 low-tier, you won¡¯t be able to absorb the attacks of level 10 low tier ultra beasts.¡± He Qi gave an example. Xu Shiying nodded when she heard this, indicating that she understood. Then, the four of them continued walking. After walking for ten minutes, they finally found a place. This place was different from the scene they had seen today. There were grassy grasslands and rivers everywhere. They were sitting under a tree. ¡°Heck! It¡¯s already 11 o¡¯clock at night?¡± Luo Qing took out his phone from his pocket and looked at it. He was shocked. They had entered the arcane realm at 10 o¡¯clock in the morning. After entering the arcane realm, the sky had been bright. They actually didn¡¯t know that it was already 11 o¡¯clock! When the other three heard this, they took out their phones one after another. When they looked, it was indeed 11 o¡¯clock at night. He Qi put away his phone and looked up at the sky. Then, he said, ¡°It seems that there is no time flow here.¡± When he said this, everyone immediately understood. There was probably no day or night here. There was only one state in the sky every day in the mystic realm! ¡°Hurry up and rest.¡± After He Qi said this, he closed his eyes and began to rest.. Chapter 35 - Teleportation Ball Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio On the other side of the mystic realm, Feng Qing was walking in the fog. Gradually, he could not see the road ahead and could only walk forward. The deeper he went, the more the fog grew. He realized that there was something wrong here, but he did not know what it was. He could only follow his intuition and walk forward. What he did not realize was that after he walked, there was a change in the surroundings. All the trees started to move. When they saw Feng Qing coming over, they immediately stopped. Feng Qing didn¡¯t notice the change at all. He kept walking forward. After he walked, the trees started to move. However, Feng Qing suddenly went back the way he came from. He also saw the moving trees. He immediately understood that these trees were behind it and attacked the trees. In less than five minutes, he had knocked all the trees to the ground. Then, the scene before his eyes changed, and he knew that he had already come out of the illusion. He walked in the mystic realm, looking for He Qi and the others. At this moment, an ultra beast suddenly rushed over from his side. This ultra beast attacked Feng Qing immediately. Seeing this, Feng Qing began to counterattack. He used half an hour, and finally killed this ultra beast. After killing the ultra beast, he continued to walk forward. At this moment, a house suddenly appeared in front of him. Seeing this, Feng Qing immediately stopped in his tracks. He hesitated whether he should enter this house or not. In the end, he decided to go in and take a look. He lifted his feet and walked in. After entering, he found that it was empty inside. It was an empty house. Just as he walked around the house and did not find anything. When he was about to leave, a flash of light suddenly flashed in front of his eyes. Feng Qing walked over curiously and found that it was the light emitted by a transparent crystal ball. He did not know the function of this crystal ball, but he still picked it up and took it away. He Qi also kept a similar crystal ball. He thought that this crystal ball was definitely not that simple. This crystal ball should also be able to open a certain door in the mystical realm! He left this place and walked in the mystical realm. He muttered, ¡°Where exactly is He Qi and the others?¡± At this moment, an intense white light appeared in front of his eyes. Then, he felt a wave of dizziness. When he recovered, he found himself standing in front of He Qi and the others. He was shocked. He immediately left the place and found a hidden place to hide. ¡°What on earth is going on?¡± Feng Qing asked in puzzlement. He carefully recalled what had just happened in his mind. Suddenly, his eyes lit up. He remembered that a white light had just appeared! He hurriedly took out the transparent crystal ball from his bag. This was the only thing he could think of that was glowing with white light! He looked at the crystal ball over and over again, but he still couldn¡¯t find anything wrong with it. ¡°Could this crystal ball able to teleport me to anywhere?¡± Feng Qing muttered in puzzlement. Then, he silently chanted in his heart to return to his original place, and the white light immediately appeared. When the white light disappeared, he indeed returned to his original place. He was delighted. He didn¡¯t expect that this crystal ball could really teleport! With this teleportation ball, wouldn¡¯t he be able to go wherever he wanted to go? Wouldn¡¯t it be easier to deal with He Qi? Feng Qing returned to the vicinity of He Qi and the others. Seeing that they were all fast asleep, he immediately attacked them. Just as he was about to attack, he was stopped. Then, dozens of people appeared out of thin air. They headed towards Feng Qing¡¯s position. Feng Qing was not afraid at all. He attacked the group of people. The group of people dodged Feng Qing¡¯s attacks. When they came close to him, they all immediately attacked him. Hearing the sound, He Qi and the other three immediately opened their eyes and looked towards the source of the sound. They thought it was a ultra beast coming over, but they didn¡¯t expect it to be Feng Qing. The four stood up and headed towards them. Seeing He Qi and the other three, Feng Qing immediately changed his direction to attack He Qi with his ability. He Qi turned his body to the side and dodged his attack. His eyes were filled with coldness as he rushed over and used his ability to attack Feng Qing. Countless flames and lightning shot towards Feng Qing. Unexpectedly, just as the attack was about to reach him, he disappeared from where he stood. ¡°He disappeared?¡± Zhao Yu frowned and asked in puzzlement. ¡°He must have found something in the mystic realm that can make people disappear into thin air, right?¡± He Qi guessed. ¡°He found such a powerful thing as soon as he came in? Then let¡¯s hurry up and set off!¡± Luo Qing said excitedly. They had searched for a whole day but found nothing. When they saw that Feng Qing had found such a powerful thing, they couldn¡¯t help but feel envious. At the same time, they were looking forward to finding something even more powerful! ¡°Let¡¯s go after we eat!¡± He Qi said. He was very curious about what could make Feng Qing disappear into thin air! This was unheard of! After the four of them finished eating, they immediately set off. However, they didn¡¯t know where to go to find the treasure, so they could only walk forward. After the four of them walked for twenty minutes, the scene in front of them suddenly changed! The four of them quickly stopped and looked at the changes in front of them. What was originally a grassy field suddenly turned into a pile of ruins. Even the field under their feet also turned into ruins. All the buildings fell together in a mess. When the scene no longer changed, they then continued to walk forward. The four of them walked carefully. He Qi was at the back of the team. He looked down at the ruins under his feet. They walked for ten minutes without finding anything. He Qi looked up in disappointment. At that moment, he saw something flickering on the ground next to him.. Chapter 36 - Space Gemstone Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio He quickly walked over and found a large pile of crystals the size of white stones. He Qi squatted down and picked up the glowing things on the ground. He held it in his hand and carefully observing them. Xu Shiying and the other two saw He Qi¡¯s actions and quickly walked to his side. After seeing the things on the ground, each of them took a bit and began to observe. ¡°This is a space gemstone!¡± Just when everyone was observing, Zhao Yu slapped his forehead and exclaimed. Hearing his words, He Qi and the other two immediately widened their eyes in shock. They had read about the space gemstone in the book. The space gemstone could be made into a space bracelet that could store everything in the world! However, the space gemstone was very rare. From the beginning of the world¡¯s catastrophe until now, only they had found the space gemstone! The people who had been hiding in the dark to protect He Qi immediately became excited when they saw this. These were rare space gemstones! They had never thought that they would be lucky enough to see them! What made them even more shocked was that there were actually 50 of it! He Qi and the other three excitedly took all the space gemstones on the ground into their bags. Feng Qing who was far away saw this scene and was extremely unhappy. ¡°Damn it!¡± He muttered in his heart. Then, he walked up to He Qi and the other three. He reached out his hand to grab their bags, but he was hit by He Qi¡¯s ability. Feng Qing pulled back his hand in pain and immediately attacked the four. Just as their attacks were about to get close to Feng Qing, he disappeared from his original spot once again. ¡°Damn it!¡± Zhao Yu gritted his teeth. It happened again. Feng Qing was so close to being attacked, but he disappeared every time! ¡°We have to find something that can make him disappear. We have to either snatch it or smash it.¡± He Qi said coldly. When the other three heard this, they nodded solemnly. They couldn¡¯t let him provoke them anymore! After the four of them finished collecting the space gemstones, they continued to walk forward. After walking for half an hour, they found a place to sit down and rest. Unexpectedly, just as they sat down, a huge ultra beast came out with a roar. Seeing this, they immediately stood up and looked at the ultra beast vigilantly. He Qi frowned. He couldn¡¯t tell the level of this ultra beast! He didn¡¯t know what kind of beast this ultra beast was! However, this ultra beast actually didn¡¯t have any intention of attacking them. It docilely walked and stopped in front of them. When the four people saw this scene, they were all stunned on the spot. They didn¡¯t know what this ultra beast meant. Seeing that it didn¡¯t want to attack them, He Qi heaved a sigh of relief. He said to the three vigilant people, ¡°Sit down and rest.¡± After saying that, he sat down. Just as He Qi sat down, the ultra beast moved. Zhao Yu and the other two were about to sit down when they heard He Qi¡¯s words. But when they saw the ultra beast¡¯s movements, they immediately stared at it vigilantly. If it attacked He Qi, the three of them would immediately attack it! The ultra beast imitated He Qi¡¯s movements and sat down. Seeing this, Zhao Yu and the other two also knew that the ultra beast wouldn¡¯t attack them. They immediately heaved a sigh of relief and sat down to rest. However, the people hiding in the dark weren¡¯t so calm. They could tell the level and species of the ultra beast. This ultra beast grew in the mystic realm. Its name was Benevolent Elephant. It was a high-level level 11 ultra beast, and it was about to level up! ¡°Oh my God! What kind of good¡¯s luck is this? This Benevolent Elephant¡¯s attack power is extremely strong!¡± One of the people in the dark said in surprise. ¡°That¡¯s right, and from the looks of it, it seems to have completely submitted to young master!¡± another person said. ¡°It¡¯s really amazing, as expected of Lord¡¯s child!¡± at this moment, the captain sighed. When the others heard this, they were very in agreement, and their eyes revealed a look of respect. Just as He Qi and the other three were resting, Feng Qing once again teleported in front of them. Seeing this, the people who had been chatting in the dark attacked Feng Qing without hesitation. He had attacked He Qi time and time again, and this had already aroused their anger. While they were attacking, Feng Qing was protecting his backpack. This scene was seen by the captain, and he immediately attacked his backpack. His intuition told him that there must be something very important in Feng Qing¡¯s backpack! Perhaps, it was the thing that could make him disappear. He immediately attacked his backpack to test it out. Sure enough, he saw Feng Qing dodge his attack while carrying the backpack. He immediately confirmed that this was the thing that could make him disappear! ¡°Attack his backpack!¡± he shouted to his subordinates. Hearing this, everyone immediately attacked Feng Qing¡¯s backpack. Feng Qing protected his backpack and absorbed all of their attacks into his body. Then, he shouted, ¡°Break!¡± Their ability attacks flew back to them immediately. They hurriedly dodged the ability attacks that flew back. Seeing their flustered expressions, Feng Qing¡¯s sneered. However, his hand was empty. His backpack had been snatched away! He turned around and found He Qi and the other three standing behind him. After He Qi took his backpack, he raised his hand and waved it. Seeing that, Feng Qing¡¯s face changed drastically, and he attacked them. Unexpectedly, He Qi directly used his backpack to block in front of him. Feng Qing immediately withdrew his attack. He couldn¡¯t shatter the teleportation ball! When He Qi saw he withdraw his attack, he was very sure that this was the thing that could make him disappear! He Qi quickly opened the bag and saw a transparent crystal ball sat quietly inside. He took out the ball and then returned the bag.. Chapter 37 - Defeating Feng Qing Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Seeing this, Feng Qing immediately rushed forward, wanting to snatch the teleportation ball back. However, he was stopped by a group of people behind him. They used their abilities on Feng Qing. Feng Qing turned his head around, his body suffused with a white light. All of their attacks merged into this white light. Following that, these attacks directly rose into the air and fell down, smashing towards these people. After putting away the crystal ball, He Qi immediately attacked Feng Qing. Feng Qing sneered and shot a white light towards He Qi. He Qi hurriedly dodged it and used his ability under his feet. On the ground near Feng Qing, there were circles of flames surrounded him. Luo Qing used his ability to break the ground outside of the flames, leaving only a small space for Feng Qing to stand on. A gust of strong wind blew around, causing the flames to burn even stronger. Bolts of lightning struck towards Feng Qing one after another. Feng Qing sneered and said, ¡°Petty tricks!¡± After that, he tiptoed on the ground and leaped across the fire circle, standing in front of He Qi and the others. Upon seeing this, Luo Qing immediately restored the cracked ground to its original state. The group of people standing behind Feng Qing kept attacking him with their abilities. Just as these people were attacking him, the Benevolent Elephant moved! It stood up, roared towards the sky, and then rushed towards Feng Qing. It used its trunk to hit Feng Qing. No matter how powerful Feng Qing¡¯s light attribute ability was, under the attack of so many people and an ultra beast, he couldn¡¯t last long. In less than half an hour, Feng Qing fell to the ground with his eyes wide open. After seeing Feng Qing¡¯s death, He Qi sneered and said, ¡°Ha! You¡¯re seeking your own death!¡± As the moment He Qi¡¯s voice faded, a black mist suddenly appeared around him. A cloud of black mist rapidly attacked He Qi. He Qi pulled the people behind him to the side to dodge it. They were watching as the black mist surrounded Feng Qing¡¯s corpse. When the black mist dissipated, Feng Qing¡¯s corpse had already disappeared. He Qi frowned and muttered, ¡°What is this black mist?¡± No one answered him, because Zhao Yu and the other two did not know what this black mist was. The group of people who had already returned to the darkness. They were all surprised to see the black mist. They knew very well what this black mist was. This was the person who had been targeting their master all along! This team leader came back to his senses. He took out his phone and sent out all the information that he had seen. ¡ª He Yi, who was resting at home, opened the message and read it. After that, he immediately put on his clothes and strode out of the room. Seeing this, Xiang Wanying asked, ¡°What happened?¡± He Yi didn¡¯t answer her question and directly handed her his phone. After reading the message, Xiang Wanying also quickly prepared herself. Two minutes later, the two of them left the door together and set off for the wild area. They didn¡¯t expect He Qi to know about the mystic realm that they had been hiding all this time. And now the kids had already entered the mystic realm! He Yi stepped on the accelerator, and the two of them arrived outside the wild area in only twenty minutes. They walked into the wild area and headed straight for the entrance of the mystic realm. They arrived at the entrance of the mystic realm overnight and found the ultra beasts guarding the place were lying on the ground. The two of them pushed the door open and walked in. ¡ª He Qi and the other three didn¡¯t know the black mist, but they didn¡¯t intend to continue thinking about it. They took the crystal ball from Feng Qing and began to study it. ¡°This is the thing that can make Feng Qing disappear?¡± Xu Shiying looked at the transparent crystal ball and asked in puzzlement. ¡°It looks like it, but how does this work?¡± He Qi looked at the crystal ball and asked curiously. For a moment, they all fell into silence. At this time, He Qi took the crystal ball and said tentatively, ¡°Go to the people who have been protecting us.¡± As soon as He Qi finished his words, a white light flashed, and He Qi had already disappeared. When He Qi stood up properly, he realized that he had already arrived at another place. He looked at the people in front of him, and all of them widened their eyes and opened their mouths wide. When Xu Shiying and the other two saw He Qi disappeared, they were shocked. They didn¡¯t know what He Qi had said, but He Qi had suddenly disappeared! ¡°It must be that crystal ball!¡± Zhao Yu said affirmatively. As soon as he said that, He Qi¡¯s figure suddenly appeared in front of them again. ¡°What did you say to suddenly disappear?¡± Xu Shiying asked curiously. He Qi had said very softly just now, but they didn¡¯t hear him. He Qi had disappeared. ¡°I said that I want to go to the people who have been protecting us, and then this crystal ball sent me to them.¡± He Qi raised his hand so that they could see the crystal ball. ¡°This crystal ball is called a teleportation ball. It can teleport us to any place.¡± He Qi told them everything he had heard from them. Hearing He Qi¡¯s words, they looked at the crystal ball curiously. They didn¡¯t know if this crystal ball could teleport so many people at once. He Qi put the crystal ball away and said to them, ¡°Rest now.¡± After saying that, he sat back in his original position to rest. Benevolent Elephant was next to him. Zhao Yu and the other two followed He Qi and sat down to rest. He Qi closed his eyes, but he couldn¡¯t fall asleep. His mind was filled with the black mist. He had a feeling in his heart that Feng Qing would come back again, and his strength would become even stronger! He Qi sighed sadly. He opened his eyes, took out a crystal core, and started to absorb it. He had to improve his ability as soon as possible, so that he didn¡¯t have to fear anyone! After he finished absorbing the crystal core, he thought to himself, ¡°Check my ability!¡± Chapter 38 - Confession, Clear Sky Association Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio [ Host: He Qi ] [ Ability attribute: fire, wind, earth, thunder. ] [ Ability level: fire, level 5 mid-tier; wind, level 5 low-tier; earth, level 5 low-tier; thunder, level 5 mid-tier. ] He Qi was satisfied after reading the information. He closed his eyes and fell asleep. When Benevolent Elephant who had been standing beside him, saw this scene, his eyes kept rolling. At night, Benevolent Elephant walked out softly. It attacked the ultra beasts that were coming over. After killing all the ultra beasts, it pushed them back to He Qi¡¯s side and then sat down beside He Qi. When He Qi woke up again, he found that he was surrounded by the corpses of ultra beasts. He was so shocked that his eyes were wide opened. At this moment, Benevolent Elephant, who was beside him, pushed the corpses of these ultra beasts in front of He Qi as if it wanted to take credit. ¡°Did you kill all these ultra beasts?¡± He Qi asked in surprise. Benevolent Elephant gave a light snort and shook his trunk, as if he wanted to be praised by He Qi. ¡°Well done!¡± He Qi praised. Killing these ultra beasts was also beneficial to him. He didn¡¯t need to kill them himself, but at the same time, he could improve his ability! It was the best of both worlds! Looking at the corpses of these ultra beasts, he said in his heart, ¡°Collect!¡± [ Collection Successful! ] [ Acquired level 6 high-tier earth-attribute ability, level 7 mid-tier wind-attribute special ability¡­ ] ¡°Do you wish to level up?¡± ¡°Level up!¡± He Qi answered without hesitation. As soon as he finished speaking, rays of light emerged from the bodies of these ultra beasts and fused into He Qi¡¯s body. A few minutes later, He Qi could clearly feel that his power level had increased, and a smile appeared on his face. When Xu Shiying woke up, she saw He Qi standing there with a silly smile on his face. She walked over, patted He Qi on the shoulder, and asked, ¡°What are you smiling for?¡± After that, she saw the corpses of the ultra beasts on the ground. She was stunned for a moment, then asked, ¡°Where did these corpses come from?¡± He Qi pointed at Benevolent Elephant and said, ¡°It killed them and brought them back.¡± ¡°This ultra beast is really strange. Why would it do this?¡± Xu Shiying muttered. He Qi didn¡¯t respond to her when he heard this. Not long after, Zhao Yu and Luo Qing woke up. The four of them got up and continued to move forward after eating. ¡ª On the other side of the mystic realm. After Xiang Wanying and He Yi walked in, they walked in the opposite direction of He Qi. Since they had decided not to stop He Qi, they would not go back on their words. They came here with only one purpose, which was to kill the mysterious man in black robes. He was a very dangerous existence! If they did not kill him, Xiang Wanying and He Yi would feel uneasy every day. This mysterious man was no match for them, so he attacked He Qi. This time, they would not let him off no matter what! On the other side of the secret realm, there was no one here. A mass of black mist lingered in the air. Then, the mass of black mist slowly descended. When the black mist dispersed, Feng Qing¡¯s body lay on the ground. A mysterious man wearing a black robe and a mask walked over. He reached out his hand and floated in the air. Black mist surged into Feng Qing¡¯s body. Then, Feng Qing¡¯s body floated in the air. The black mist wrapped around Feng Qing. Ten minutes later, the mysterious man withdrew his hand. The black mist also withdrew from Feng Qing¡¯s body. Feng Qing fell back to the ground. Not long after, Feng Qing opened his eyes. He stood up and bowed to the mysterious man. His eyes were filled with admiration. He said respectfully to the mysterious man, ¡°Master, what are your orders?¡± ¡°Go and kill He Qi!¡± a deep voice entered his ears. When Feng Qing heard this, he replied, ¡°Yes!¡± As soon as he finished speaking, the mysterious man waved his hand and Feng Qing disappeared from the spot. After seeing Feng Qing disappear, the mysterious man also turned into a cloud of black mist and faded. ¡ª He Qi and the others walked leisurely for a long time. Finally, they found a place to sit down and sat together. ¡°He Qi, have you asked them? Who exactly are they here to protect?¡± Xu Shiying remembered the question they had been discussing and looked at He Qi. When He Qi heard this, he was stunned for a moment. He had forgotten about this matter. But it didn¡¯t matter. He could call them out now and ask them about it. He wasn¡¯t afraid that they wouldn¡¯t come out. After all, he had a teleportation ball! ¡°Come out and talk!¡± He Qi shouted into the air. Now he didn¡¯t know where they were hiding. When the people in the dark heard this, they looked at each other. The captain sighed and walked out. This matter could no longer be hidden. He should take this opportunity to confess. He found a place to sit down. He looked at them and said, ¡°What do you want to ask?¡± He Qi saw how straightforward he was and asked, ¡°Who sent you?¡± He glanced at He Qi and said, ¡°Your father.¡± Hearing this, He Qi¡¯s eyes widened in shock. He could not believe what he had heard. These people were actually sent by He Yi to protect him? At the same time, he felt a warmth in his heart. He did not expect He Yi to send people to protect him. No wonder they were so assured that he had come to the wild area. It turned out that they had sent people to protect him. He Qi looked at this person and asked again, ¡°What¡¯s your name?¡± He replied, ¡°Qing Yi.¡± He Qi continued to ask, ¡°What does my father do?¡± When Qing Yi heard this, he was stunned for a moment. He was very hesitant. He did not know if he should tell He Qi about this matter. When He Qi saw him like this, he knew that that was something fishy with his father¡¯s identity! He looked coldly at the person in front of him. This person was startled by He Qi¡¯s gaze. He closed his eyes and told him about the matter.. ¡°Your father is the president of the Clear Sky Association!¡± Chapter 39 - Awakening the Light Attribute Ability Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Hearing this, He Qi and the other three widened their eyes. They couldn¡¯t believe what they had just heard! The Clear Sky Association was established after the catastrophe of the world. In a short period of time, the president of the association quickly recruited ability users from all over the world. It was said that the president went to a wild area and obtained a lot of treasures. After all the ability users knew about this, they all went to the wild area, but none of them got anything. Some of the ability users even died in the wild area! After the president came back, he recruited many people who could develop medicinal pills and gave them the recipes that he brought back from the wild area for them to study. They developed medicinal pills that could help ability users level up. After that, they spent half a year to upgrade all the ability users in the association to level 5 high-tier! They even sold these pills that could help ability users level up, which immediately made all the ability users thrilled! Moreover, the code of conduct in the Clear Sky Association was to punish evil and promote good. Whenever the people in the association saw ability users bullying ordinary people, they would help those ordinary people. Once, an ability user created trouble in the Clear Sky Association and ridiculed an ordinary person. This incident was witnessed by the lowest level of ability users in the association. In the end, the troublemaker was immediately kicked out of the association. However, the president had never shown up. Every time he appeared, he wore a mask. Except for the elders, no one knew what the president looked like. Some people even said that the president of the association was an ordinary person without ability, a waste, and an ugly monster! After the president heard these words, the news of the tragic death of the entire family spread on the streets the next day. Thinking of what he had done, people immediately didn¡¯t dare to insult the president of the Clear Sky Association anymore. In fact, they even held the Clear Sky Association in high esteem! Right now, the Clear Sky Association was still researching pills that could turn ordinary people into ability users. If this research was successful, the Clear Sky Association¡¯s status in people¡¯s hearts would be even higher! He Qi didn¡¯t expect that the president of the Clear Sky Association was actually his father! The legendary and mysterious president was actually He Yi! Xu Shiying and the other two were shocked for a long time when they heard that. They did not expect that He Qi¡¯s identity was so extraordinary! However, it seemed that he had just found out about it. Very soon, He Qi came back to his senses and asked again, ¡°You guys must know what that black mist is, right?¡± Qing Yi replied, ¡°I only know that he has a great hatred towards the president. As for the specifics, I don¡¯t know.¡± Hearing this, He Qi fell silent for a moment, then said to Qing Yi, ¡°Alright, that¡¯s all for you.¡± As soon as He Qi finished speaking, Qing Yi immediately disappeared from where he was. This mysterious man had a grudge against He Yi. If he couldn¡¯t deal with He Yi, then he would definitely come after He Qi! Now, he would definitely think of all sorts of ways to get rid of He Qi! Feng Qing had also been taken away by him. If he could revive Feng Qing, or even increase his strength greatly, then things would be troublesome! It seemed like He Qi had no choice but to awaken his light attribute ability! He came back to his senses and said to Xu Shiying and the other two, who were still in shock, ¡°It¡¯s very likely that Feng Qing will be revived. Right now, we have to seize the time to increase our strength!¡± After saying that, he gave them some crystal cores. Hearing He Qi¡¯s words, Zhao Yu and the other two felt that He Qi¡¯s words were very reasonable. They didn¡¯t know what kind of ability that black mist had. Perhaps it could really resurrect Feng Qing. In short, increasing their strength was the most important matter! After they all used the crystal cores to increase their strength, He Qi sat beside Benevolent Elephant and said in his heart, ¡°Awaken light attribute ability!¡± Then, a white light surged into He Qi¡¯s body. After so many awakenings, He Qi didn¡¯t feel as much pain anymore. Ten seconds later, He Qi successfully awakened his light attribute ability! He opened his backpack, took out the light attribute skill book that had been lying inside, and started to practice the skills. Just as the four of them were all improving their abilities, a figure suddenly appeared near them. He attacked He Qi and the others, and a white ball of light enveloping them. After letting out a cold laugh, he started to observe his surroundings, trying to find the group of people protecting He Qi and the others. A few minutes later, he finally found them and attacked them. Like He Qi and the others, they were enveloped by the white ball of light. After reading the skill book, He Qi tried it out on the spot and quickly mastered the skill. He put the skill book into his backpack and then looked at Zhao Yu and the other two who were still absorbing the crystal cores. Seeing the white light around them, He Qi walked over and found that he couldn¡¯t get close to them. By right, they should have finished absorbing the crystal cores and upgraded their power. How could there be no movement? He frowned and realized that something was wrong. He used his power to attack the three of them. The attacks couldn¡¯t get close to them! Suddenly, He Qi¡¯s eyes turned cold. Feng Qing must have come back! He hid behind them and wanted to give them a fatal blow! However, he wouldn¡¯t let him succeed! He Qi used his light attribute ability to attack them, but the attacks actually bounced back. He thought to himself, ¡°Collect!¡± Then, he heard the system¡¯s voice. [ Collection successful! ] [ Level 5 high-tier light attribute ability obtained. ] [ Do you want to level up? ] ¡°Level up!¡± He Qi said without hesitation. Then, a beam of light surged into his body, swimming through his entire body. He Qi could clearly feel that his light attribute ability was increasing. A dozen seconds later, he saw Zhao Yu and the other two in front of him who had returned to normal. After they had finished absorbing the crystal cores, He Qi said to them, ¡°Feng Qing has returned!¡± Hearing this, Zhao Yu and the other two were shocked.. Chapter 40 - Making a Space Bracelet Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio He immediately looked around but didn¡¯t find Feng Qing. ¡°You¡¯ve killed him?¡± Luo Qing scratched the back of his head and asked. ¡°How is that possible? He¡¯s a light-attribute ability user!¡± He Qi looked at him with disdain and said. A light-attribute ability user couldn¡¯t be killed by an ordinary ability user! Otherwise, how could it be worthy of being the second most powerful attribute. At that moment, Feng Qing arrived in front of them from a distance. Seeing that, Xu Shiying said coldly, ¡°He¡¯s here!¡± Hearing that, He Qi and the other two immediately looked over. They saw Feng Qing was coming for them and attacking them without saying a word. He Qi and the other three kept retreating, dodging Feng Qing¡¯s attacks. They began to counterattack him. A large number of vines instantly appeared in the surroundings. They surrounded Feng Qing. Then, they tied Feng Qing up quickly and accurately. The ground under his feet broke open in an instant, allowing him to fall down from above. Then, the ground was restored to its original state. Unexpectedly, just as the ground was restored, a ball of light directly broke out of the ground. Feng Qing stepped on a white ball of light and rose up. As he rose up, the flames in the sky quickly fell toward him. Bolts of lightning also struck toward him. However, these attacks were all absorbed by the ball of light under his feet. After a ¡®bang¡¯ sound, these attacks were all bounced back. They hurriedly dodged these attacks. At this moment, He Qi realized that something was wrong. Why didn¡¯t Qing Yi and the others appear until now? Could it be that something was wrong with them as well? Then, he took out the teleportation ball and said to himself, ¡°Teleport to Qing Yi.¡± With a flash of light, He Qi arrived in front of Qing Yi in an instant. He saw that they were all trapped in a sphere of light, and he immediately collected it. They looked at He Qi with a dumbfounded expression, not knowing what had happened. He Qi didn¡¯t have time to explain so much. He hurriedly said to them, ¡°Feng Qing has been resurrected.¡±. Then, he used the teleportation ball to teleport back. Hearing that, Qing Yi and the others immediately came back to their senses. They rushed over and attacked Feng Qing. After He Qi returned, he directly used his newly awakened light attribute ability on Feng Qing. He quickly came to Feng Qing¡¯s side and absorbed all the white light radiating from Feng Qing¡¯s body into his own body. Zhao Yu, Qing Yi, and the others kept attacking Feng Qing, while He Qi absorbed all of Feng Qing¡¯s light attribute ability. They successfully attacked Feng Qing. Feng Qing frowned. He attacked He Qi, but He Qi kept retreating and attacking him. After being attacked, Feng Qing realized that he was no match for them. He threw a smoke bomb on the ground and left. After the smoke disappeared, they couldn¡¯t see Feng Qing anymore. ¡°He escaped again.¡± Luo Qing said angrily. It had been many times. Every time, he would disappear when he was about to be killed! ¡°He has the protection of the mysterious man now. Even if we kill him, he will still be resurrected.¡± He Qi said. ¡°That¡¯s right. If the mysterious man doesn¡¯t die, Feng Qing will always be here.¡± Xu Shiying agreed. ¡°Then, should we go and kill the mysterious man now?¡± Zhao Yu asked. ¡°No, the mystic realm is so big. We are not his match either.¡± ¡°We can still do our own thing. We¡¯ll beat Feng Qing every time he comes. Moreover, he never defeats us a single time.¡± He Qi shook his head and said. The other three nodded. He Qi¡¯s words made sense. They were not the mysterious man¡¯s match yet. It was better not to seek death. ¡°Then what do we do now?¡± Luo Qing asked. ¡°Now we can make space bracelets. It will be much more convenient with space bracelets.¡± He Qi thought for a moment. ¡°But none of us here know how to make space bracelets.¡± Xu Shiying said. ¡°Yeah, none of us know that.¡± Luo Qing agreed with Xu Shiying. Zhao Yu, who was at the side, nodded. They had never seen a space gemstone before, so how could they possibly know how to make space bracelets. ¡°Just because we don¡¯t know it doesn¡¯t mean that no one here doesn¡¯t know it.¡± He Qi said mysteriously. ¡°Are you talking about Qing Yi and the others?¡± Xu Shiying guessed. He Qi nodded and then shouted to the air. Qing Yi appeared in front of them again. ¡°What¡¯s the method to make a space bracelet?¡± He Qi asked. As soon as he finished his words, he saw Qing Yi take out a blueprint. He handed it to He Qi and returned to his post. He Qi took a look at the blueprint in his hand and showed it to them. After they looked at the blueprint, they took out ten space gemstones and started to make the space bracelet. However, the space bracelet was not so easy to make. They had been working on it until night, but they still could not make the space bracelet. ¡°Rest first. There are still a lot to do afterwards.¡± He Qi stopped what he was doing and said to them. Hearing He Qi¡¯s words, they all stopped what they were doing and sat down to rest. Just as they sat down to rest, Benevolent Elephant walked out from the side. ¡°Where is it going?¡± Seeing this, Luo Qing asked curiously. ¡°It should be going to kill ultra beasts.¡± He Qi replied indifferently. He was already a little used to it now. Benevolent Elephant would go out from time to time, and would come back with the corpses of the ultra beasts. Not long after, they saw Benevolent Elephant push the corpses of the two ultra beasts back to He Qi¡¯s side. After seeing the corpses, He Qi said in his heart, ¡°Collect!¡± [ Collection successful! ] [ Acquired level 6 high tier earth attribute ability, level 7 mid-tier thunder attribute ability. ] [ Do you want to level up? ] ¡°Level up!¡± He Qi said without any hesitation..
